What does a "Yield" sign require a driver to do?

  1. Speed up to pass through quickly

  2. Slow down and prepare to stop if necessary

  3. Stop immediately regardless of traffic

  4. Ignore other vehicles and pedestrians

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

A "Yield" sign requires a driver to slow down and prepare to stop if necessary, ensuring that they evaluate the traffic conditions at an intersection or merging area. The essence of a Yield sign is to give the right of way to other vehicles or pedestrians that may be approaching. This means that while a driver should reduce their speed, they need to be vigilant about the surrounding traffic and ready to stop if there are vehicles or pedestrians already in the intersection or if there is oncoming traffic. The focus here is on increasing safety by allowing others to proceed first, rather than speeding through the intersection or ignoring the right of way rules that govern the behavior of drivers.
