Question 4340

On this section of road, what is the maximum speed?

  1. The speed indicated by the signs.
  2. The generic maximum of 90 km/h, for passing
  3. The speed indicated by the signs, plus 20 km/h for passing.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: The speed indicated by the signs.

In the image, a sign and a pavement marking set a limit of 80 km/h. That limit takes precedence over the conventional road's (carretera convencional) general limit of 90, and you must obey it even when passing, because passing gives you no extra allowance.
