Correct answer

  • BSí.Yes.
Explanation

Special vehicles with a maximum authorised mass of up to 3,500 kg must use the hard shoulder on their right if it is driveable and wide enough; if it is not, they use the part of the carriageway that is strictly necessary (Article 36.1 of the General Traffic Regulations (RGC)), as the tractor in the picture is doing.
