The vertical obligation sign R-400 C for obligatory direction of travel indicates, via the arrow on the sign, the direction in which all vehicles are required to travel. Therefore, as long as this sign applies, you cannot modify your trajectory, not even to make a turn.

Reversing manoeuvre is indicated with the reversing light, and if not available, extending the arm horizontally with the palm facing backwards.

Traffic regulations state that drivers are obligated to warn other road users of the manoeuvres they intend to perform with their vehicles. These warnings are made with the corresponding turn indicator, even if you are in a turn-only lane as in this case. So, in this case, the vehicle must turn on its left turn signal.

Any vehicle that is stopped, immobilized or parked on the roadway or shoulder of a poorly lit cross town road between sunset and sunrise must leave its position lights turned on, although you can use the parking lights or the two position lights on the side closest to the roadway when the vehicle is parallel parked.

This panel always comes along with a priority vertical sign and indicates that the route along the left hand branch would have the right of way. So in this case we would only have priority if we turn left.

Cargo vehicles of less than 3,500 kilograms of MMA, as in this case a 2,500 kg truck of less than 2 years old, will be exempted from passing the MOT inspection (ITV in Spain). If it is between 2 and 6 years old, it will pass MOT inspection every 2 years, from 6 to 10 years old every year and from 10 years after its first registration every 6 months.

The compulsory insurance will only cover the driver’s civil liability against third parties, but not personal injury or property damage suffered by the driver or his car when the driver is at fault in the accident.
Thus, it will cover the damages caused to the driver who has not caused the accident and also those of his vehicle.

Spanish traffic law establishes that under no circumstances is it permitted to exceed the speed limit established on motorways, dual carriageway and in the city, not even to overtake another vehicle.

The maximum speed for driving on a conventional road is 90 km/hour for the following vehicles:
• Passenger cars
• Motorcycles
• Pick-up vehicles and motor homes with a gross vehicle weight of 3,500 kg or less (which are limited to 120 km/h on highways and freeways), as well as buses, vehicles derived from passenger cars and adaptable mixed vehicles (the latter are limited to 100 km/h on expressways).
Previously it was possible to exceed the maximum speed on conventional roads by 20 km/hour to overtake but since 2022 it is FORBIDDEN.

Braking distance: This is the distance travelled by the vehicle from the time it effectively brakes by pressing the brake pedal until the vehicle comes to a complete stop; this is directly related to the condition of the brakes and tires and their proper maintenance.

On roads with an acceleration lane, the driver of a vehicle intending to use the acceleration lane to enter the flow of traffic shall ensure at the beginning of the acceleration lane that he can do so without danger to other vehicles on the road by giving way to them if necessary.

Yes, to get ready to change direction, to overtake, stop or park: Correct
In a built-up area, a driver can change lanes if necessary for certain actions, such as preparing to turn, overtaking another vehicle, or positioning the vehicle to stop or park. The key point is that lane changes should be made for valid reasons and should be done safely, considering the road conditions and traffic. It’s important to ensure that any lane change aligns with the driver’s intended maneuver and follows traffic rules.
Yes, but only to change direction: It it incorrect while changing lanes to change direction is allowed, this option is too restrictive because lane changes are also permissible for overtaking, stopping, or parking, not just changing direction.
No: This is not correct because changing lanes is allowed for valid reasons such as overtaking, stopping, or preparing to turn. The key is ensuring that the lane change is done safely and in accordance with traffic laws.

When driving on non-built or interurban roads, stopping or parking must always be done outside the roadway, on its right side and without occupying the passable part of the shoulder.
On urban roads and crossings, on the other hand, when stopping or parking on the shoulder, place the vehicle as close to the right side as possible if the road is a two-way road, or as close to the left or right side as possible if the road is a one-way road.

All citizens, directly or indirectly, Public Administrations and Insurance Companies, will assume the cost and expenses caused by traffic accidents, either in the form of fees, fines, taxes, toll charges, etc…

The road- and environment-related factors that most often cause distractions and loss of attention in the driver of a vehicle include poor lighting, driving on a familiar road, or driving in an overly complex traffic situation, such as a traffic jam.

The safest BAC (blood alcohol level) for any driver, whether professional or non-professional, will be 0.0 milligrams per litre of alcohol in the breath, since even drinking alcohol in small quantities can affect the driving of a vehicle, especially two-wheeled vehicles, as it is very easy to lose balance.

A pedestrian pushing a cart or carrying a bulky item should primarily use the designated pedestrian area to ensure smooth movement for all foot traffic. However, if the pedestrian pathway is obstructed or if their presence could create an obstacle for other pedestrians, they are permitted to walk along the hard shoulder or even on the road if absolutely necessary. This allows them to continue their journey safely while minimizing disruption to others using the pedestrian space.

A driver’s reaction time when encountering a hazard on the road can vary depending on their physical and mental condition at that moment. Several factors can slow down reaction time, such as the consumption of drugs or alcohol, extreme heat inside the vehicle, or feelings of fatigue and drowsiness. Under these conditions, a driver may take longer to respond to unexpected situations, increasing the risk of accidents.

Explanation:

Yes, but without invading the opposite direction: Correct

Overtaking is prohibited in places with reduced visibility, EXCEPT if there are two clearly delineated directions of travel and you can do the manoeuvre without invading the area reserved for the opposite direction.

Among the various infractions that drivers commit while driving, those most dangerous for pedestrian traffic are parking or stopping in properly marked crosswalks, lanes reserved for public transport vehicles, or on sidewalks or residential roads. These places are usually frequented by pedestrians who can be in danger when carrying out these infractions.

When the driver of a vehicle ingests alcohol it usually causes a narrowing of the visual field, which generates a “tunnel effect” that increases the likelihood that the driver will miss some of the lateral stimuli, especially when at an intersection.

In the cross-town of urban roads that are insufficiently illuminated, it shall be mandatory for parked vehicles to leave their position lights on when the illumination does not allow other users to distinguish them at a sufficient distance.

On passenger cars, the left outside rear view mirror (the driver’s side) is always obligatory and should be accompanied by the right outside mirror and the inside mirror, or at least one of the two.

Therefore, if the left outside mirror is broken, you must repair or replace it so that you can drive safely.

Road Traffic Regulations define the stopping distance or technical stop distance as the distance a vehicle travels from the time the driver perceives an obstacle or possible danger and applies the brake pedal until the vehicle comes to a complete stop.

Braking distance is the distance the vehicle travels from the time you press the brake pedal until your vehicle comes to a complete stop. This distance will be determined mainly by the speed at which you are driving, but will also be affected by the mass of the vehicle, the condition of the brakes and the condition of the road or the environment.

The three-wheel vehicles, quadricycles, mopeds and motorcycles can haul a trailer when they drive during the day on interurban roads, decreasing 10% the maximum speed, and only when the trailer weight is lower than the 50% of the tractor vehicle weight.

The windows of the vehicle must always allow the driver a proper visibility of the entire road on which it circulates, without interference from films or stickers.
Only when the vehicle is equipped with two exterior rear-view mirrors, one on each side, that meet the necessary technical specifications will it be allowed to drive with such adhesive films or sun blinds on the rear windows.

For vehicles less than one metre wide, such as motorcycles or mopeds, the load they carry may protrude a maximum of 0.25 metres at the rear and absolutely nothing at the front.

The driver of a vehicle that is stopped or parked and intends to incorporate itself into traffic on a road must first make sure that they can do so without endangering other users, even following the instructions of another person if necessary, and they must yield to all vehicles and users on the road, taking into account these users’ position, trajectory and speed.

When you are driving on a road and are blinded by the high beam headlights of another vehicle travelling in the opposite direction, you should avoid looking at them directly and reduce your speed, even coming to a complete stop if necessary, until you regain normal vision and are able to drive safely.
