Explanation

For answer  A 

The road legislation does not provide anything in this regard.


For answer  B 

The longitudinal marking formed of a single or double continuous line prohibits crossing it, regardless of the situation.


For answer  C 

The continuous longitudinal marking separating the directions of travel does NOT have implication in prohibiting or allowing performing the overtaking maneuver on the sector on which it is applied, as long as this marking is not crossed. Overtaking is allowed on that sector, as long as the continuous longitudinal marking is not crossed or passed over. If for overtaking the continuous longitudinal marking would not be crossed, the overtaking would be in compliance with the traffic rules.


The correct answer is: B
