Question 190 of 802

What does it mean to drive preventively in unfavourable weather?

A to strictly respect the speed limits for the road section on which you are driving;
B to reduce the speed to the limit at which you make sure of good visibility and full control over the controls;
C to drive as close as possible to the axis of the road.

Explanation

For answer  A 

Strictly respecting the speed limits for the road section on which you are driving is not part of preventive conduct, but a legal obligation.


For answer  B 

The drivers of vehicles must adjust the travel speed to the limit at which they make sure of good visibility and full control over the controls of the motor vehicle. For example, if we drive in the urban area in torrential rain, we have the obligation to drive with a maximum of 30 km/h, but there are situations in which even 30 km/h is a high speed, thus the speed must be reduced to the limit at which you make sure of good visibility and full control over the controls.


For answer  C 

It is recommended, from the point of view of preventive conduct but also from the legal point of view, to maintain a sufficient lateral distance from the vehicles moving from the opposite direction. Therefore, it is not correct to drive as close as possible to the axis of the road.


The correct answer is: B
