On motorways (autopistas) and dual carriageways (autovías), driving below 60 km/h without good reason is prohibited, even if there is no other traffic (Article 49.1 of the General Traffic Regulations (RGC)). It is allowed only in cases such as special vehicles, or when traffic, the vehicle or the road make it impossible to go faster without risk.
