Show answer

Correct answer

  • ADespués de la intersección.After the junction.
Explanation

When a speed limit is on the same post as a warning sign, in this case a junction with priority, the limit applies only for as long as that danger lasts. So it ends once you have passed the junction, without any end-of-prohibition sign being needed.
