Show answer

Correct answer

  • C50 km/h.50 km/h.
Explanation

On travesías the general limit is 50 km/h for all types of vehicle (Article 50.5 of the General Traffic Regulations), and it also applies when overtaking: since 21 March 2022 you may not exceed the maximum speed to overtake, because Law 18/2021 repealed Article 51.
