Correct answer
- CDetenerme como si de rojo fijo se tratase.Stop as if it were a steady red light.
Explanation
A steady amber light requires you to stop just as a steady red light does, unless, when it comes on, the vehicle is so close to the stopping point that it cannot stop safely. The light that allows you to go through taking extreme care is the flashing amber light.
