Correct answer

  • BEl vehículo que se halle dentro de la vía circular.The vehicle that is already on the circular road.
Explanation

At a roundabout, vehicles already driving on it have right of way. This means that a vehicle on the circular road has right of way over those trying to enter. The broken stop line tells approaching vehicles that they must give way to those already on the roundabout.
