Among other precautions, what must the driver of a vehicle who has to yield make sure of before continuing their journey?
Joining traffic
Explanation
To yield correctly, it is important to ensure that the driver with the right of way is not forced to **suddenly change their speed**. This means you should gradually reduce your speed so that the other driver realizes you are yielding to them.
- **Gradually reducing speed** is crucial to avoid surprises or sudden maneuvers by the driver with the right of way.
- You should **remain stopped or drive slowly** until the other vehicle has passed and you can continue safely. This ensures that the traffic flow is maintained without interruptions.
Additionally, at intersections, it is important to follow the signals and not enter if there is a risk of getting trapped, which could force other drivers to stop or change their speed unexpectedly.
In summary, yielding correctly involves anticipating and avoiding any situation that forces the driver with the right of way to make sudden maneuvers, thus ensuring smooth and safe traffic flow.
