Can vehicles from adjacent properties have access to a dual carriageway?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

The correct answer is yes, but they have limited access. This is one of the key differences between a motorway (autopista) and a dual carriageway (autovía). On motorways, there is absolutely no access from adjacent properties, whereas on dual carriageways, such access is permitted but restricted. This means vehicles cannot enter directly onto the main carriageway to avoid dangerous situations caused by speed differences; they must do so via service roads or designated acceleration lanes.
