Correct answer

  • AModerar la velocidad y, si fuera preciso, detener el vehículo.Moderate your speed and, if necessary, stop the vehicle.
Explanation

On a slippery surface, grip drops and the vehicle responds less well: you must moderate your speed and, if necessary, stop. The rules require you to adapt your speed to the state of the road, not only to the signs.
