GENERAL Learning Environment Category C (C, C1)
Question 277 of 533

What is the speed at which you must move on a public road that is wet or covered with slush or snow?

A the speed provided by the Regulation for the category of road on which you are driving at that moment;
B the speed that gives you the safety that you can stop and avoid any road event, without going into a skid;
C in this situation you must not drive with more than 20 km/h.

Explanation

The driver of the vehicle, throughout the entire movement on public roads, must respect the legal speed limit and adapt it depending on the road conditions, so that he can perform any maneuver in safety conditions. But when the carriageway is covered with glaze, ice, packed snow, slush or wet cobblestone, besides respecting the legal speed limit and adapting it depending on the road conditions, he must also take into account the obligation to drive with a speed that does not exceed 30 km/h, in the urban area, or 50 km/h outside built-up area.
