  1. 90 km/h on a freeway or high-capacity divided highway, and 80 km/h on a conventional road.
  2. 100 km/h on a freeway or high-capacity divided highway, and 90 km/h on a conventional road.
  3. 100 km/h on a freeway or high-capacity divided highway, and 80 km/h on a conventional road.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: 90 km/h on a freeway or high-capacity divided highway, and 80 km/h on a conventional road.

Outside built-up areas, a motor vehicle (automóvil) towing a trailer, like the off-road vehicle in the image, is allowed to travel at a maximum of 90 km/h on a freeway (autopista) or high-capacity divided highway (autovía) and 80 km/h on a conventional road (carretera convencional). A sign may set a lower limit, in which case you must obey the sign.
