Warning signs

What do right-of-way and priority signs look like?

This group of signs is special because the signs vary widely in shape and colour.

A unique feature of three of these signs — the yield sign, the stop sign and the priority road sign — is their distinctive shape, which sets them apart from all other signs. This makes them easy to recognise even from the back.

As the name suggests, the signs in this group regulate when you must yield, and to whom.

Yield

The sign indicates that drivers must give way to traffic in both directions on the crossing road.

Is the yield sign important for the theory test and the driving test?

Yes, the yield sign is very important both for the theory test and the driving test. It is essential to understand what the sign means and how it affects traffic flow, as this is often part of the assessment in traffic situations.

What is the yield sign?

The yield sign is a triangular sign with the point facing downward, usually with a red border and a yellow or white background. It signals that the driver must give way to all crossing traffic. It is often used at entrances to larger roads and in roundabouts.

When do you encounter the yield sign?

You encounter the yield sign at intersections, entrances to main roads, or other places where it is necessary to give priority to road users traveling in other directions. It is also used for temporary traffic regulations.

What happens if you don't obey the yield sign?

Failing to obey the yield sign can lead to dangerous situations, fines, and in the worst case, serious accidents. It is therefore critical to follow this sign to ensure safety on the road.
