A common mistake by drivers is to speed up and merge with the traffic that has the right of way, instead of coming to a stop and allowing those with the right-of-way to pass. If the yield sign is in your lane, approach the intersection with caution and be prepared to stop.

Note: A distracted driver is a dangerous driver. Texting, talking on a cell phone, looking for papers or items dropped while driving and many more are proven by researchers as taking your attention away from the road ahead and motorists around you. Become a “determined” driver instead by choosing to be in control of your attention and actions when you’re in the driver’s seat.
