Answer: A. every day from dawn to dusk
The sign means slow to 30 km/h every day from dawn to dusk.
Why this is the answer
The handbook passages describe a playground zone as having a 30 km/h limit that applies every day from dawn to dusk. They also describe school zones separately, with a 50 km/h limit from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. on school days when children are on the roadway or shoulder. Because the sign means slow to 30 km/h, the matching rule is the playground zone rule: the lower speed applies every day from dawn to dusk, not only during school hours.
Why the other answers are wrong
- B. school days from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. — That time rule describes school zones, which the passages say use 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. on school days, not the every-day dawn-to-dusk 30 km/h limit.
- C. when children are near the road — The passages connect slowing when children are present with school zones, not with the 30 km/h limit that applies every day from dawn to dusk.
- D. school days from dawn to dusk — No passage says a school-day limit runs from dawn to dusk; the school zone hours given are 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. on school days.
Remember it
Picture a playground staying active all day: its 30 km/h limit runs dawn to dusk, unlike school-hour zones.
