The correct answer is This is sign R-301 (Maximum Speed). To distinguish between speed signs, remember the rule of shapes and colors: Option 1 (Correct): Circle with a red border. Circular signs with red borders indicate a prohibition. In this case, it prohibits exceeding the indicated speed from the point where the sign is placed until the prohibition ends (marked by an 'End of prohibition' sign or an intersection on non-priority roads). Option 2 (Incorrect): Blue circle. Circular signs with a blue background indicate an obligation. This would be the 'Minimum Speed' sign (R-411), which obliges you to drive at or above that speed, not below it. Option 3 (Incorrect): Blue square. Square or rectangular signs are for indication or information. This would be the 'Advisory Maximum Speed' sign (S-7), which simply recommends not driving faster than the figure, but does not strictly prohibit it.
