Failing to yield the right-of-way is one of the most frequent causes of traffic collisions. If you see a yield sign ahead, be prepared to let other drivers crossing your road take the right-of-way. It is important to drive in a safe and legal manner and always abide by all traffic laws to avoid causing or increasing the risk of accidents that may have devastating consequences for you and for others.
