Question 5139

- Yes, because the safest thing is to drive at the maximum permitted speed.
- No, because driving slower is always safer.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: Yes, and it is also prohibited.
Yes. You must not drive below the minimum speed without a justified reason. You also hold up drivers behind you, who could hit you from behind. Going slower isn't always safer. In the image, the round blue sign with a 40 shows the minimum speed for that road section.
