Correct answer

Stop, because it prohibits passing, the same as a traffic light with a non-flashing red light.

Traffic lights with a horizontal white stripe on a black circular background indicate to trams and regular buses that they must stop, as if it were a red traffic light. If the white stripe were vertical, it would indicate that these vehicles may resume moving, as if it were a green traffic light.
