Practice question

A yield sign indicates that you must be prepared to do what?

  1. Speed up quickly
  2. Stop if a vehicle or pedestrian is approaching
  3. Turn right
  4. Ignore other vehicles

Answer: B — Stop if a vehicle or pedestrian is approaching

A yield sign is a regulatory sign that indicates you must be prepared to give the right-of-way to other traffic. When approaching a yield sign, you should slow down and look for any oncoming vehicles or pedestrians that may have the right-of-way. If another vehicle or pedestrian is approaching and it would be dangerous to proceed, you must stop to allow them to go first. Being prepared to stop if necessary is crucial for maintaining traffic safety and preventing accidents. This practice ensures that traffic flows smoothly while respecting the rights of others on the road.
