Everyone look and learn

THIS is a yield sign.


When you are driving down the road and you are merging into traffic, if there is a yield sign on your side of the road, then you must YIELD to the oncoming traffic.

That doesn't mean drive the same speed as the traffic and just act like you don't see the cars coming. It doesn't mean look straight ahead and hope that if you don't see the cars in traffic, then they will automatically part and let you in.

It means you must give the other traffic the right of way and merge safely into traffic.

I really REALLY hate people who don't yield. Evidently, so does this dude. He compiled the laws addressing bad drivers. Here is the one on yielding:

YIELDING ON FRONTAGE ROADS
§545.154 (I think this is the statute)
An operator on an access or feeder road of a limited-access or controlled-access highway shall yield the right-of-way to a vehicle entering or about to enter the access or feeder road from the highway or leaving or about to leave the access or feeder road to enter the highway.

His interpretation:
This law is quite simple. If you're on the frontage road (a.k.a. access road, feeder road, service road, or gateway) of a freeway or expressway, then you must yield to traffic exiting or entering the freeway or expressway. This law covers all entrance and exit ramps, even if there are no yield signs. (Do you have to be told everything?) Even if the traffic leaving the freeway merges into a separate lane, you are still required to yield. After all, they may want to quickly move over to the right lane to turn. Note, though, that yielding does not necessarily mean stopping.

Thank you Jesus. SOMEONE does know how to drive besides me and Army of Dad. Good God almighty, people make me nuts.
