Correct answer

  • BSí, pues la señal circular es de paso obligatorio.Yes, because the round sign shows which side to pass on.
Explanation

The round sign in the picture is a compulsory passing side sign: it shows on which side of the traffic island vehicles must pass. If it were instead a compulsory direction sign, it would require us to follow the direction shown and turning left would be prohibited.
