Correct answer
- CObliga a detener el vehículo.It requires you to stop the vehicle.
The sign shown in the picture indicates that passing without stopping is prohibited. It marks the place where you must stop because, according to its inscription, a customs, police, toll or other control point is close, and mechanical means of stopping may be installed beyond it (you may not move off again until you have complied with what the sign requires). At a toll, this stop is usually so that we pay the charge for using the road. We may also find this sign at a customs post or a police checkpoint.
