Question 3840
Where is it prohibited to turn on the high beams?
- Outside a built-up area, in tunnels and road sections marked with a tunnel sign.
- On narrow roads.
- In a built-up area: streets and road sections through it (travesías).
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: In a built-up area: streets and road sections through it (travesías).
In built-up areas, including streets and road sections through them (travesías), high beams are prohibited even if the road is poorly lit. However, in a poorly lit tunnel outside a built-up area, they are mandatory above 40 km/h if you do not blind anyone. A road being narrow does not by itself prohibit their use.
