Correct answer

  • ASí, siempreYes, always.
Explanation

The obligation to wear the vest does not depend on whether it is day or night: you must wear it when you get out of the vehicle and step onto the carriageway or hard shoulder of a road outside a built-up area, including after an accident. It makes you visible at any time of day.
