Correct answer
- CCuando vaya a menos de 45 km/h.When it is below 45 km/h.
Explanation
On a conventional road the general speed limit for a car is 90 km/h (Article 48.1.a of the General Traffic Regulations). On roads other than motorways (autopistas) and dual carriageways (autovías), a speed below half of the general limit is considered abnormally low (Article 49.1): half of 90 is 45 km/h.
