9 YIELD SIGN ALWAYS SLOW OR STOP, AND GIVE THE RIGHT OF WAY TO TRAFFIC WHEN APPROACHING A YIELD SIGN. YIELD SIGN CAN BE FOUND WHERE ROADWAYS CROSS OR MERGE. SLOWING ENOUGH AHEAD OF TIME CAN OFTEN PERMIT YOU TO PROCEED WITH OUT COMPLETELY STOPPING. PROCEED ONLY WHEN IT IS SAFE TO DO SO, WITHOUT AFFECTING THE FLOW OF TRAFFIC. (DON T PUTT- PUTT.)
