The special warning signals with light of colour BLUE, together with those sound, oblige you to give priority, and in order to give priority you have to reduce the travelling speed and to move as close as possible to the edge of the road, in the direction of travel, more exactly as close as possible to the curb or to the hard shoulder on the right side.
In the case in which, for the giving of priority, it is needed also to stop, you have to do it. A good example would be the intersections in which stopping is needed in order to be able to give priority to these motor vehicles with priority traffic regime.
