In Portuguese road regulations, how should a driver warn other road users of an intention to overtake outside built-up areas at night?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: C. Parking within five meters before a designated road junction in an urban area
- Step 1: Nighttime warning signals. Step 2. Article 22 specifies that during darkness outside built-up areas, acoustic signals should be replaced by brief flashing of headlights (sinais de luzes) to avoid noise disturbance and improve visual detection. Answer: By briefly flashing dipped-beam or high-beam headlights in an alternating pattern. Why not the others: Horn use is replaced by light signals at night; hazard flashers indicate emergencies.
