Correct answer

  • Ano se adapta ni a las circunstancias del tráfico ni a las de la vía.it is not adapted either to the traffic conditions or to the road conditions.
Explanation

Article 45 of the General Traffic Regulations requires you to respect the limits and also to adapt your speed to the condition of the road, the vehicle and its load, the traffic and the weather. A speed that is not adapted to these circumstances is inappropriate even if it does not exceed the limit.
