At an intersection with a yield sign, when do you have the right of way?

At an intersection with a yield sign, you have the right of way when there are no vehicles or pedestrians in your path. This means if the road is clear, you can proceed without having to wait for others to pass. The purpose of a yield sign is to indicate that you must slow down and look for any oncoming traffic or pedestrians, allowing them the right of way if they are present.

In this situation, if you observe that the intersection is clear, you can safely continue through it. Conversely, if there are vehicles approaching or pedestrians crossing, you must yield to them, which is an important part of maintaining safety on the roads. The other choices suggest scenarios where you might expect to have the right of way, but they do not hold up under the fundamental rule that the presence of others in the intersection takes priority over your desire to proceed.
