Correct answer

  • B60 km/h60 km/h
Explanation

According to the General Traffic Regulations (RGC) in Spain, the minimum speed on a dual carriageway (autovía) is 60 km/h. Driving below this speed on motorways (autopistas) and dual carriageways (autovías) is prohibited so as not to hinder the normal flow of other vehicles. This keeps traffic flowing more efficiently and reduces the risk of accidents. The correct answer is therefore 60 km/h.
