Show answer

Correct answer

  • AA 80 km/h.80 km/h.
Explanation

When a motorway (autopista) runs through an urban area, its general limit is 80 km/h, not the 120 km/h that applies outside built-up areas (Article 50 of the General Traffic Regulations). It can only be higher if this is expressly signed.
