Correct answer

  • CPor autopistas y autovías.On motorways (autopistas) and dual carriageways (autovías).
Explanation

Article 49.1 of the General Traffic Regulations forbids driving motor vehicles at less than 60 km/h on motorways (autopistas) and dual carriageways (autovías). On other roads the minimum is half the general limit for each vehicle, so a vehicle that cannot reach 60 km/h may be driven on them.
