Question 6499

On a conventional road without physical separation between the directions of travel, may a passenger car exceed the general maximum speed to pass a vehicle traveling at 90 km/h?

  1. Yes, it may travel at a maximum speed of 110 km/h to pass.
  2. No, because the other vehicle is traveling at the maximum permitted speed.
  3. Yes, it may travel at a maximum speed of 100 km/h to pass.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: No, because the other vehicle is traveling at the maximum permitted speed.

No. On a conventional road (carretera convencional) without physical separation, your limit is 90 km/h. If the other vehicle is already traveling at 90, you cannot pass it without exceeding the limit, and passing gives you no extra allowance.
