Correct answer
- ACuando se encuentre una señal de fin de prohibición o velocidad máxima diferenteWhen you come to an end-of-restriction sign or a different maximum speed sign
Explanation
A speed limit imposed by a sign or by a road marking painted on the carriageway ends when you come to an end-of-restriction sign or a sign with a different maximum speed. The driver's wishes, or when the driver thinks it is appropriate to slow down or speed up, do not count.
