Correct answer
- Ben la cabezain the head
The correct option is the head, because the most serious injuries to cyclists who are hit by a vehicle are usually traumatic and can threaten vital functions, especially in the head, where the brain and other vital organs are. According to the General Traffic Regulations, drivers must take special care with cyclists, who have priority in certain circumstances, which stresses the importance of protecting all road users.
