Regulatory, Lane & Parking SignsStandalone practice
You approach this YIELD sign where your road meets a cross street. You can see far in both directions. No vehicles, bicyclists or pedestrians are near. What must you do?

Correct answer: Slow down, look both ways, and go on without a full stop
Why
A yield sign tells you that other traffic has the right-of-way. Slow to a speed at which you can stop, and stop at the line or before the crosswalk if a vehicle, bicyclist or pedestrian is close. In Washington, a crash with a vehicle in the intersection after you pass a yield sign without a stop is evidence that you did not yield.
