§ 8-2.7. Vehicle Entering Intersection of Roadway Controlled by Yield Right-of-way.

a.

The driver of any vehicle, upon approaching any yield right-of-way sign at the entrance to a highway or intersection, shall not drive at a speed exceeding fifteen (15) miles per hour across such highway or intersection and shall slow down and stop if necessary and shall yield the right-of-way to other vehicles which have entered the intersection from an intersecting street or which are approaching so closely on the intersecting street as to constitute an immediate hazard.

b.

The driver, having so yielded, may then proceed and the drivers of all other vehicles approaching the intersection on the intersecting roadway shall yield the right-of-way to the vehicle so about to enter or cross the roadway protected by the yield right-of-way sign; provided, however, that the provisions of this subsection shall be nonoperative at any such intersection when the traffic thereat is directed and controlled by an officer, flagperson, semaphore or other traffic signal device.
