Correct answer

  • ASí.Yes.
Explanation

According to Article 66.1.a of the General Traffic Regulations, drivers have priority over animals except on properly signed livestock routes (cañadas). On a cañada you must give way to livestock simply because they are on it, not because they have already started to cross.
