Correct answer

  • ASí.Yes.
Explanation

Under Article 106 of the RGC, when heavy rain or other conditions noticeably reduce visibility, you must have your lights on at any time of day: dipped headlights, main beam or the front fog light, as well as the sidelights. Not doing so is a serious offence.
