Correct answer

  • Bcuando salgan del vehículo y ocupen la calzada o el arcén de una vía interurbana.when they get out of the vehicle and are on the carriageway or hard shoulder of a road outside a built-up area.
Explanation

Under Article 118 of the General Traffic Regulations, car drivers must wear the high-visibility reflective vest when they get out of the vehicle and are on the carriageway or hard shoulder of a road outside a built-up area. This matters for safety: on these roads visibility may be limited, and the vest helps other drivers see them, which reduces the risk of accidents.
