The drivers of vehicles are obliged to respect the maximum speed allowed on the road section on which they move and for the category to which the driven vehicle belongs, as well as the maximum speed required through the means of signalling. For example, if you move on a road within built-up area you must move with a speed that does not exceed the maximum speed limit for roads within built-up areas, this being 50 km/h. However, if you encounter a means of signalling that requires another maximum speed limit, such as the sign "Speed limit" at 40 km/h, you will respect the limit required by that sign and you will move with a speed that does not exceed 40 km/h, because the meaning of the signs will be respected with priority over the traffic rules.
It is not mandatory to drive, as much as possible, in the lower speed gears. On the contrary, this behaviour of the driver of the motor vehicle leads to the increase of fuel consumption and implicitly of environmental pollution.
The correct answer is: A and B
Regulation** - Article 121
(1) The drivers of vehicles are obliged to respect the maximum speed allowed on the road section on which they move and for the category to which the driven vehicle belongs, as well as the one required through the means of signalling.
(2) The non-compliance with the speed regime established according to the law is found by the traffic police officers, with technical means approved and metrologically verified.
