Correct answer

  • CNo. Debo respetar las normas, sobre todo en los cruces.No. I must obey the rules, especially at junctions.
Explanation

Anyone who, because of a serious emergency, carries an injured person in a vehicle that is not a priority vehicle must warn others by sounding the horn intermittently and switching on the hazard warning lights, but under Article 70 of the General Traffic Regulations (RGC) they must obey the traffic rules, especially at junctions. They do not gain right of way.
