Question 7067
On what type of road may the road authority set a maximum speed of 100 km/h for passenger cars, motorcycles, and motorhomes with a maximum authorized mass (MMA) not exceeding 3,500 kg?
- On conventional roads with physical separation between the two directions of travel.
- On conventional roads with shoulders wider than 1.5 meters.
- On conventional roads with three or more traffic lanes.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: On conventional roads with physical separation between the two directions of travel.
The road authority may set a 100 km/h limit for those vehicles on conventional roads (carreteras convencionales) with physical separation between the two directions, like the barrier in the image, and indicates it with signs showing 100. The shoulder's width and the number of lanes do not count.
