Correct answer

  • B60 km por hora60 km per hour
Explanation

According to Article 49.1 of the General Traffic Regulations, on motorways (autopistas) and dual carriageways (autovías) you must not drive a motor vehicle at less than 60 km/h without a good reason. This is a fixed figure; the rule of half the general limit applies on other roads.
