Show answer

Correct answer

  • CNo, porque al señalizar tiene preferencia.No, because by signalling it has priority.
Explanation

Before overtaking, you must check that the vehicle in front of you in the same lane has not signalled its intention to move to the same side; if it has, it has priority (Article 84.2 of the General Traffic Regulations). Only if it has not done so after a reasonable time may we overtake it, warning it first.
