Florida Learner's Permit Practice Test

What should you do when approaching a yield sign?

Come to a complete stop and wait for the way to clear. Slow down and proceed with caution. Speed up and merge with traffic. Treat it as a stop sign and proceed when it is safe.

Correct Answer:

Slow down and proceed with caution.

Explanation:

When approaching a yield sign, the correct action is to slow down and proceed with caution. This is because a yield sign indicates that you must give the right-of-way to other vehicles or pedestrians. Option A, stopping completely and waiting for the way to clear, may cause unnecessary delays and disrupt the flow of traffic if there is no need to do so. Option C, speeding up and merging with traffic, is incorrect because it goes against the purpose of a yield sign to yield and give way to other vehicles. Option D, treating it as a stop sign and proceeding when it is safe, may also cause delays and confusion among other drivers as a yield sign does not require a complete stop.
