Regulatory, Lane & Parking SignsStandalone practice
A downward-pointing white triangle with a red border and the red word YIELD controls your street where it joins a main road. A bicyclist on the main road will pass in front of you in a few seconds. What must you do?
Correct answer: Slow down, and stop if you must, so that the bicyclist goes first
Why
The YIELD sign is the only sign shaped like a downward-pointing triangle. Some roads also have a yield line, a row of white triangles on the pavement, that shows where to stop if you must yield. Under Vermont law, a crash with a vehicle in the intersection after you pass a YIELD sign without a stop is evidence that you did not yield.
