signs
What does an Alabama YIELD sign require a driver to do?
- Speed up before entering the intersection
- Slow down and yield to pedestrians and vehicles on the intersecting road
- Stop for exactly three seconds in every situation
- Proceed first whenever the driver arrived before another vehicle
Answer: Slow down and yield to pedestrians and vehicles on the intersecting road. A YIELD sign tells the driver to reduce speed and give way to pedestrians crossing the roadway and vehicles on the intersecting street or highway. It does not promise that the approaching driver may proceed first, and it does not impose a fixed three-second stop when traffic is clear. Speeding up defeats the purpose of the sign because it reduces the time available to observe and respond. Approach under control, check both the crossing path and the intersection, and continue only after the people and vehicles with priority are safely clear.
