Correct answer

  • CNo, porque tiene preferencia de paso.No, because it has right of way.
Explanation

Under Article 57.1.c of the General Traffic Regulations, at roundabouts vehicles already travelling on the circular road have priority over those wanting to enter it. That is why the vehicle inside does not give way to the one wanting to enter, even if it approaches from its right.
