Correct answer

  • BApagar el motor.Switch off the engine.
Explanation

Article 115.2 of the General Traffic Regulations (RGC) requires anyone who is held up in a tunnel for more than two minutes to switch off the engine. The lights are not switched off: the sidelights must stay on, and the hazard warning lights alone are not enough.
