Correct answer
- CCuando circule por un carril reversible.When driving in a reversible lane.
Explanation
During the day you must have at least the dipped headlights on when driving in a reversible lane, in a temporary additional lane or in a lane opened for traffic in the opposite direction to normal (Article 104 of the General Traffic Regulations). There is no such specific obligation in VAO lanes or in light rain.
