Correct answer
- BSí, pero respetando sus propias limitaciones.Yes, but keeping to its own limits.
Explanation
The spare wheel can be replaced by a temporary-use wheel or by an alternative system that gives enough guarantee that the vehicle can keep moving. A temporary-use wheel has its own limits, for example a maximum speed of 80 km/h and a maximum distance of 200 km.
