Show answer

Correct answer

  • ALas luces de posición y las de cruce (cortas).Sidelights and dipped headlights.
Explanation

Under Article 101 of the General Traffic Regulations, in a well-lit tunnel you must have your sidelights and dipped headlights on at any time of day. Main beam is only for tunnels that are not lit well enough, when there is no risk of dazzling anyone.
