Correct answer

  • CA la velocidad adecuada que permita incorporarse con seguridad.At an appropriate speed that lets you join safely.
Explanation

A driver joining a motorway should do so at a speed suitable for the road, taking into account the position, path and speed of the road users already on it, and even stopping if necessary. They should then accelerate in the acceleration lane until reaching a suitable speed and join the motorway at the end of it.
