Question 5345
What must you do when yielding the right-of-way?

- Stop and check whether another road user has the right-of-way.
- Stop at intersections if another vehicle is approaching.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: Not force the vehicle that has the right-of-way to abruptly change its path or speed.
Yielding means not forcing anyone with the right-of-way to brake or suddenly change their path. You must also show them well in advance that you are going to wait, mainly by slowing down gradually. You do not always have to stop. If the other vehicle is far away and your maneuver does not affect it, you may proceed without stopping, except at a stop sign.
