Explanation

For answer  A  and  C 

To signal the intention to perform the maneuver of overtaking, the use of the horn or the headlights is not permitted, whether it is the main beam (long beam) or the dipped beam (short beam), and regardless of whether they are used separately or combined. See the explanation for answer B.


For answer  B 

The intention to perform the maneuver of overtaking, whether you perform the maneuver during the day or at night, will be signalled only with the direction indicator lights. The main beam of the headlights, the combination of the dipped beam and the audible warning signal or other types of signalling will not be used to signal your intention to perform the maneuver of overtaking.


The correct answer is: B
