Correct answer

  • ASí, pero solo para realizar alguna maniobra permitida, como girar.Yes, but only to carry out a permitted manoeuvre, such as turning.
Explanation

The broken line separating a lane reserved for buses and taxis allows other vehicles to use it only to carry out certain permitted manoeuvres, such as turning. You may not enter it to stop or to avoid a traffic jam: stopping in lanes reserved for certain users is prohibited (Article 94.1 of the General Traffic Regulations).
