Failure to yield right-of-way
Traffic Violation
As a licensed driver in the state of Virginia, it is important to know and understand traffic signs and signals. Ignoring traffic signs and signals may land you a charge of failure to yield right-of-way. For instance, failure to bring your vehicle to a complete stop when entering a highway, from a side road. Particularly, when so indicated. Furthermore, not coming to a complete stop where indicated can bring a reckless driving charge. Particularly, when there is a vehicle approaching your point of entrance withing 500 feet of your vehicle, unless:
- “Yield Right-of-Way” sign posted.
- where such sign is posted, fails, upon entering such highway, to yield the right-of-way to the driver of a vehicle approaching on such highway from either direction.
Do not attempt to take on any traffic violations and reckless driving charges by yourself. These types of traffic violations and reckless driving charges can greatly affect the points on your drivers license.
