- A 40 km/h
- ✓ Half the generic maximum speed set for each type of vehicle on that road
- C 60 km/h
- D 30 km/h
Why this is the correct answer
Under Article 49.1 of the General Traffic Regulations, on roads other than motorways and dual carriageways you must not drive below half the generic maximum speed set for each vehicle category. For example, for a car on a conventional road (90 km/h) the minimum is 45 km/h. There are justified exceptions, such as special vehicles or traffic, road or vehicle conditions.
