What is the legal minimum air pressure a driver should have before starting a trip in a vehicle with air brakes?

Correct!
Not quite. The correct answer is highlighted.
Correct answer to question 59 (Air Brakes): Full operating pressure, well above the level where the low pressure warning would activate
