This is the passing code:

def check_speed(car_speed)
  # write your code here

  if (car_speed >= 40) && (car_speed <= 50)
    return "safe"
  end
end

Please check the differences and make sure you understand what the exercise asked and what the code contains. Watch the video as many times as you need, there's nothing wrong with it.
