Answer 1

Stop if someone is coming. But if it is clear you can go.

Answer 2

In road transport, a yield (Canada, Ireland, and the United States) or give way (United Kingdom and many Commonwealth countries) traffic sign indicates that a driver of a vehicle must slow down and prepare to stop if necessary (usually while merging into traffic on another road) but does not need to stop if there is no reason to. A driver who has actually stopped in this situation is said to have yielded the right-of-way to through traffic on the main road. In contrast, a stop sign always requires a full stop. The first yield sign was installed in Tulsa, Oklahoma and was invented by Tulsan Clinton Riggs.[1]

According to one rulebook, a yield sign may be warranted:[citation needed]

on a minor road at the entrance to an intersection where it is necessary to assign right-of-way to the major road, but where a stop is not necessary at all times, and where the safe approach speed on the minor road exceeds 10 miles per hour;
on the entrance ramp to an expressway where an acceleration lane is not provided;
within an intersection with a divided highway, where a STOP sign is present at the entrance to the first roadway and further control is necessary to the entrance to the second roadway, and where the median width between the two roadways exceeds 40 feet;
where there is a separate or channelized right-turn lane, without an adequate acceleration lane;
at any intersection where a special problem exists and where an engineering study indicates the problem to be susceptible to correction by use of the yield sign.
The same rulebook states that yield signs should not ordinarily be placed to control the major flow of traffic at an intersection.

Give way signs (or just the equivalent road markings) are often used at UK road junctions at which stop signs would have been used in the USA. The signs can be yellow as well.

Yield Sign(Correct spelling) is a traffic sign indicates that a driver of a vehicle must slow down and prepare to stop if necessary (usually while merging into traffic on another road) but does not need to stop if there is no reason to. A driver who has actually stopped in this situation is said to have yielded the right-of-way to through traffic on the main road.

YIELD: The three-sided (triangle) sign tells you to give the right-of-way to all vehicles and pedestrians near you. Slow down to a safe speed and stop if necessary. When stopping, do so at a marked crosswalk or before entering the intersection.

You also may see YIELD signs on expressway ramps. These signs are posted when there is no extra lane where drivers may speed up to merge with expressway traffic.

Rushing and speeding is not worth risking your life. Because the people who ask you to speed are not going to be there, to fix the problem(Broken car, or broken body part of yours), it is you who are responsible.

Drive Safe, and respect others. Be safe. Have fun driving, Pay attention to traffic signs.

Answer 4

It means you are going to be yeilding with other drivers which basically means you are going to be turning on a street or highway where drivers are already driving.

Answer 5

those 2 signs and indicators are on the front of the motor vehicle parking zone at paintings and could be perfect for my mattress room door too: secure practices observe: Closed Circuit Surveillance Cameras in Operation workers in elementary terms i assume i'm in basic terms an old formed female at heart! lol ;)

Answer 6

If there is a car coming, then stop at the sign and wait for the way to be clear. If it is clear, go on through.

Answer 7

It means extra caution. It means yield the right-of-way. You must let all traffic and pedestrians near you go before you step on the gas peddle again.

Answer 8

Read the manual!
It means yield [ let the other lane go first - they have right of way ].

Answer 9

YIELD means you have to "yield" (or give) the right of way to other vehicles if they are present.

Answer 10

race to the intersection
