Is a passenger car towing a trailer allowed to exceed the maximum speed limit of the road to overtake?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

The answer is No. Currently, on Spanish roads, the 20 km/h margin that allowed cars and motorcycles to exceed the maximum speed on conventional roads to overtake has been eliminated. Therefore, no vehicle, and certainly not a vehicle combination (car with trailer), may exceed the established speed limit to perform an overtaking maneuver. Driving with a trailer reduces stability, making strict adherence to limits vital for safety.
