Correct answer

  • ALa necesidad de extremar la atención o la proximidad de un peligro.The need to take extra care or that there is a danger nearby.
Explanation

The yellow flag tells other road users to take extra care or that there is a danger nearby. The red flag temporarily closes the carriageway, and an arm stretched downwards from a vehicle orders drivers to stop on the right.
