What is the difference between the stop sign and the yield sign?
1 Answers
The biggest difference between the two is that the yield sign is set up at locations with traffic lights, while the stop sign is set up at locations without traffic lights. Meaning of the stop sign: It indicates that vehicles must stop behind the stop line to observe and confirm safety before being allowed to proceed. It is generally set up at intersections with poor visibility. Meaning of the yield sign: It indicates that vehicles should slow down or stop to yield, informing drivers that they must slow down or stop, observe the traffic on the main road, and proceed only when it is safe to do so, ensuring the priority of vehicles on the main road. It is set up at intersections of secondary roads with good visibility.
