What is the recommended action when approaching a yield sign?

  1. Speed up to merge with traffic

  2. Come to a complete stop

  3. Slow down and prepare to stop if necessary

  4. Ignore the sign if it is empty

The correct answer is: Slow down and prepare to stop if necessary

The recommended action when approaching a yield sign is to slow down and prepare to stop if necessary. A yield sign indicates that you must give the right of way to any oncoming traffic or pedestrians in the intersection. Slowing down allows you to assess the situation and determine whether it is safe to proceed. If there are no vehicles or pedestrians, you can continue without stopping. However, being prepared to stop ensures that you are ready to react appropriately if there are other road users present. This approach promotes safety and helps prevent accidents at yield intersections.
