The preview does return the "safe" value in this code challenge.

Hi Guys,

I really do not get how this is not working. The check_speed function is supposed to return a string with "safe". When trying out with the preview I do get a string with "safe" in it.

Any hit or help appreciated,

ruby.rb 
def check_speed(car_speed)
  # write your code here
  if (car_speed > 40) && (car_speed <=50)
    return "safe"
  end
end

check_speed (45)

"At least" translates into >=, not >. Also, the challenge does not ask for this last line that tests the code.
