Correct answer
- CExtremar la precaución y ceder el paso a ambos lados.Take extra care and give way on both sides.
Explanation
One or two alternately flashing amber lights require you to take extra care and to give way when appropriate, and they do not exempt you from obeying other signs that require you to stop (Annex I of the RGC). A compulsory stop is indicated by flashing red lights.
