Approaching a yield sign means you slow down and be prepared to stop if needed to let traffic on the main road go first. The sign requires you to yield the right‑of‑way to vehicles already in or approaching the intersection and to pedestrians. If there’s no oncoming traffic or a safe gap, you may proceed; if there is traffic, slow or stop to wait for a safe moment to merge. Speeding up isn’t appropriate, stopping immediately is for a stop sign, and turning left at the next intersection isn’t required—you still must yield to others before proceeding.
