Correct answer

  • AEl conductor del vehículo rojo, porque tiene prioridad de paso.The driver of the red vehicle, because they have right of way.
Explanation

Both vehicles are at the same give way sign and face each other, so the rule of giving way to vehicles from the right does not apply. The yellow vehicle is going to turn left and crosses the path of the red one, which is going straight on; under Article 74.1 of the RGC, a driver who turns must make sure that vehicles coming from the opposite direction allow them to do so without danger.
