What is the meaning of the “Yield” sign when approaching an intersection?

You must stop immediately
Proceed without stopping
Give way to pedestrians and vehicles
Ignore all other signs

The correct answer is: Give way to pedestrians and vehicles

The “Yield” sign indicates that a driver must give way to other vehicles and pedestrians when approaching an intersection. This means that you must slow down and be prepared to stop if necessary to allow others to proceed safely. It emphasizes the importance of caution, ensuring that those who have the right of way can continue without interruption. When approaching a yield sign, it's crucial to assess the intersection and the traffic conditions. If there are no vehicles or pedestrians, it may be safe to proceed without stopping. However, if any are present, yielding allows for safer navigation through the intersection. This practice is intended to prevent accidents and conflicts between different road users, particularly in busy or complex driving situations. The other choices do not accurately represent the function of a yield sign. Stopping immediately, proceeding without stopping, or ignoring signs would not align with the strategic intent behind yield signage, which is to prioritize safety and the flow of traffic.
