Correct answer

  • AAumentaré la atención por posibles desprendimientos y obstáculos en la calzada.I will pay more attention because of possible falling rocks and obstacles on the carriageway.
Explanation

This is the falling rocks warning sign: it warns that stones may fall onto the carriageway or that there may be obstacles that have already fallen. The right thing to do is to pay more attention and adapt your speed, not to speed up or move onto the opposite side of the road.
