Correct answer

  • BQue debe extremarse la precaución, permitiéndose el paso pero sin prioridad.You must take extra care; you may pass, but without priority.
Explanation

A flashing amber light allows you to pass, but requires you to take extra care and to give way when the right-of-way rules require it (Annex I of the RGC). It does not prohibit traffic or invite you to speed up.
