In which of the following situations are you obliged to drive with reduced speed?

A when you are tired and the motor vehicle has the braking system defective;
B at the level crossing with the current railway;
C on county and communal roads.

Explanation

For answer  A 

The road traffic legislation prohibits driving the motor vehicle when it has the braking system defective, regardless of whether it is the service brake or the parking brake, and when you are tired it is recommended to not drive motor vehicles.


For answer  B 

At the level crossing with the current railway, the driver of the vehicle is obliged to drive with reduced speed and to make sure that from the left side or from the right side no rail vehicle is approaching.


For answer  C 

When driving on county and communal roads, the obligation to drive with reduced speed is not provided. However, just like on all other categories of roads, you must respect the legal speed limit and adapt it depending on the road conditions, so that you can perform any maneuver in safe conditions

On county and communal roads no obligation to drive with reduced speed is provided. If the regulations and the respective areas do not establish another speed regime, on these categories of roads you can drive with a speed of up to 50 km/h in the urban area and 90 km/h outside built-up area.
