Question 7018
A passenger car is driving on this road at less than 45 kilometers per hour. Is that correct?
- Yes, because of the poor condition of the road.
- No, because the minimum permitted speed on this road is 45 kilometers per hour.
- Yes, because no minimum speed at which you may drive is posted.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: Yes, because of the poor condition of the road.
Yes. On a conventional road (carretera convencional), a passenger car must not travel below 45 km/h without a reason, half its general speed limit of 90 km/h. Here there is a reason: the road surface in the image is full of potholes, and you could not drive safely at that speed. The minimum applies even if no sign shows it.
