Show answer and explanation
✓ La Guardia Civil
On Spanish roads, traffic is watched by the Guardia Civil de Tráfico, which depends on the Ministerio del Interior (the Ministry of the Interior). Cataluña and the País Vasco have their own traffic police on their roads, because they have that power. The Policía Nacional (the national police) focuses on the cities and on documents, and the army has no traffic duties. Remember: road equals Guardia Civil.
