In the given situation you have correctly selected the traffic lane to turn to the left, but you must respect the meaning of the red signal of the traffic light for the left turn. The regulatory priority signs, in this case “Priority road”, will be respected when the traffic lights do not function or operate on the intermittent yellow signal. Therefore, you must stop and wait for the appearance of the green colour signal, which allows you the passage. After which, you can continue your movement.

(2) The meaning of the light signals for directing the traffic of vehicles is valid on the entire width of the carriageway open to the circulation of the drivers they are addressed to. On roads with two or more lanes on each direction, for different directions, delimited by longitudinal markings, the traffic lights can be installed above one or some of the lanes, in which case the meaning of the light signals is limited to the lane or lanes thus signalled.

Regulation** - Article 49

On the red or green colour lamps of the traffic lights black colour arrows can be applied which indicate the directions of movement corresponding to them. In this case the prohibition or permission of passing imposed by the light signal is limited to the direction or directions indicated by these arrows. The same meaning have also the arrows applied on the additional panels which accompany, at the lower part, the traffic lights. The arrow for straight ahead has the tip upwards.
