Correct answer
- CCircular hasta la primera salida por la que pueda abandonar la vía.Drive to the first exit where you can leave the road.
Drivers who, because of an emergency, have to drive on a motorway (autopista) or dual carriageway (autovía) at an abnormally low speed, that is, below 60 km/h, must leave it at the first exit. Also, if they seriously disrupt the traffic, they must drive on the right-hand hard shoulder, if it is wide enough and usable.
