Correct answer

  • Ccon una luz blanca por delante y una roja por detrás acompañado del catadrióptico correspondiente.with a white light at the front and a red one at the rear, together with the corresponding reflector.
Explanation

At night, a load sticking out at the front is marked with a white light, and one sticking out at the rear with a red light, as well as the reflective V-20 sign at its rear end. A simple reflector is not enough.
