Correct answer
You are travelling at the minimum permitted speed on this type of road
You are travelling at the general minimum of 60 km/h. That speed does not require using the hard shoulder. The minimum is not absolute: Article 49 permits slower travel when traffic, vehicle or road circumstances prevent a higher speed safely. Never accelerate to the minimum if doing so is unsafe; adapt speed and observe signs.
