Correct answer

  • BContinuar su trayectoria a través de la intersección sin detenerse.Continue through the junction without stopping.
Explanation

An arm raised vertically requires those approaching the officer to stop, but if the signal is given at a junction, it does not require drivers who have already entered it to stop (Annex I of the General Traffic Regulations, section 1.1): they must finish crossing it without blocking the way.
