Show answer

Correct answer

  • BCon señales ópticas y acústicas.With light signals and sound signals.
Explanation

You can warn the driver in front that you intend to overtake with light signals, using dipped headlights, main beam or both alternately, at very short intervals and in a way that avoids dazzling, and with sound signals (the horn). Depending on where we are, we can use one or the other: - On roads outside built-up areas: sound signals (horn) or light signals (flashes). - On urban roads: light signals (flashes). The horn is prohibited.
