Correct answer

  • BNo, porque la flecha verde me permite pasar pero debo ceder el paso al vehículo que se aproxima.No, because the green arrow allows me to go but I must give way to the approaching vehicle.
Explanation

The green arrow allows you to move in the direction it shows even when the red light is on, but with caution: you must let vehicles in the lane you are joining go past and not endanger anyone crossing the carriageway. It does not give right of way.
