Correct answer
At 60 kilometres per hour.
60 km/h. Article 49 prohibits travelling below 60 km/h on motorways and dual carriageways without a justified reason. Lower speeds are permitted when traffic, vehicle or road circumstances prevent maintaining a higher speed safely. For example, do not accelerate to 60 km/h in a queue or with insufficient visibility. Also observe maximum limits and adapt speed to conditions.
