At an intersection with no signs, signals, or police directing traffic, who must yield?

In an intersection with no signs, signals, or police directing traffic, the rule is that drivers turning left must yield to drivers going straight. This principle is based on the expectation that drivers traveling straight have the right-of-way since they are following a path of least deviation from their direction.

When a driver intends to make a left turn at such an intersection, they must assess the oncoming traffic and ensure that it is safe to proceed before making the turn. This is important for maintaining safety and reducing the risk of collisions.

The other options involve situations where yielding is not required. Drivers going straight maintain their course without needing to yield, and a driver making a right turn also does not typically yield to vehicles going straight unless there are specific conditions that necessitate it. The guideline about all drivers yielding to the vehicle to the right does not apply in this scenario as it is not relevant to the left turn yielding rule.
