Correct answer

  • ASí.Yes.
Explanation

Lanes opened for traffic in the opposite direction to the usual one to keep traffic flowing may only be used by motorcycles, with or without a sidecar, and cars. However, when they are opened because of roadworks, they may be used by all vehicles allowed on that road, unless expressly prohibited.
