Correct answer

  • BCon el brazo extendido y la palma de la mano hacia atrás.With the arm held out and the palm of the hand facing backwards.

If the reversing light is faulty, the manoeuvre is signalled with the arm held out and the palm of the hand facing backwards: arm signals replace light signals when these fail.
