Correct answer
- BDetenernos como si de rojo fijo se tratase.Stop, as if it were a steady red light.

At a steady (non-flashing) amber light we must stop in the same way as for a red light, unless, when the light comes on, the vehicle is so close to the stopping point that it cannot stop before the traffic light safely.
