Question 958

In the situation shown in the image, what does the circular sign above the built-up area entrance sign indicate?

  1. Driving faster than 40 km/h is prohibited throughout the built-up area.
  2. It is a reminder of the general speed limit set for urban roads.
  3. Since it matches the pavement marking, it indicates the maximum speed set only for the road section through the built-up area (travesía).
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: Driving faster than 40 km/h is prohibited throughout the built-up area.

The speed limit associated with entering a built-up area generally applies throughout that area. Its scope is not limited to the road section passing through it.
