Correct answer
- BEn el lado izquierdo.On the left side.
According to the General Traffic Regulations, motorcycles must have at least one exterior mirror, and it must be on the left side. This is because the left mirror gives the rider the best field of view, allowing them to watch the traffic approaching from behind and on their left. This rule makes sure the rider has proper visibility for their own safety and that of other road users. So the correct answer is that the mirror must be on the left side.
