Correct answer
- BSí, y además es obligatorio usar la luz antiniebla trasera.Yes, and the rear fog light is in fact compulsory.
Explanation
In heavy rain you may use the front fog light, and in very heavy rain the rear one must be on (Article 106.2 of the General Traffic Regulations). So in very heavy rain you may use both and the rear one is compulsory; they are not only for fog.
