Correct answer
- BCuando llueve o nieva mucho.When it is raining or snowing heavily.
Explanation
The rear fog light must only be switched on in especially bad conditions, such as dense fog, very heavy rain, heavy snowfall or thick clouds of dust or smoke (Article 106 of the General Traffic Regulations). Using it when it is not needed dazzles the driver behind.
