Explanation

If during the movement with the vehicle technical problems appear that make it impossible to continue the journey, you are obliged to take the vehicle outside the carriageway or, if this is not possible, to move it as close as possible to the curb or the shoulder, placing it parallel to the axis of the road, signalling its presence by activating the hazard warning lights and by installing the reflective triangles, taking measures to remedy the deficiencies or, as the case may be, for towing.

The correct answer is: B
