Correct answer

  • AEs obligatorio parar el vehículo.You must stop the vehicle.
Explanation

This is the 'no passing without stopping' sign: round, with a red border, a white background and a horizontal black bar. It means you must stop at that point, for example at a toll, a customs post or a checkpoint. Do not confuse it with the no-entry sign, which is red with a white bar.
