Correct answer
- BNo, debería circular por la derecha.No, it should drive on the right.
Outside built-up areas, on carriageways with more than one lane in your direction, you must normally drive in the lane furthest to the right, although you may use the others when traffic or road conditions make it advisable, provided you do not obstruct any vehicle behind you. So, after overtaking, if the vehicle does not intend to keep overtaking, it must drive in the right-hand lane.
