Show answer

Correct answer

  • C80 km/h.80 km/h.
Explanation

On motorways (autopistas) and dual carriageways (autovías) that run through built-up areas, the general limit is 80 km/h (Article 50 of the General Traffic Regulations). It may only be raised if this is expressly signed; the 120 km/h limit is for these roads outside built-up areas.
