Correct answer

  • AEl vehículo que circula por el carril que se pretende ocupar.The vehicle travelling in the lane you want to move into.
Explanation

Changing lanes is a manoeuvre, and the driver making it must give way: priority belongs to the vehicle already travelling in the lane you want to move into. The indicator warns others, but does not give you priority.
