Sounds like you were Blue while the Purple guy was already coming across 45, in which case you absolutely would be expected to yield. Once he is crossing 45, Purple has right of way at the intersection with Blue's yield sign.


This is basically 3 different intersections, not one big one.

1) Median Crossing/Highway 45 lanes (Purple's current spot)

2) Elkcam Blvd/Highway 45 exit (Blue's current spot)

then

3) Elkcam Blvd/Tamiami Trail frontage road


Each has its own set of traffic control signs, dictating who has right of way at each of the three intersections.

So if Purple is currently transiting across 45 onto Elkcam, Blue has to yield at that (2nd) intersection. But if Purple is just sitting stopped at the median, Blue doesn't need to yield since the intersection in questions (2nd) is clear.

Cheese and Rice! Blue, Purple, White, Black Blonde, what about Pink, nobody wants to be Pink!

Listen, it's simple Mr. Purple has the right of way, end of story, he's on a major highway crossing, Mr. Blue doesn't enter the intersection until either Mr. Purple is through, or, Mr. White and Mr. Black Blonde who are approaching the intersection from the bottom are through the intersection. At that point Mr. Purple must wait so's Mr. Blue can proceed as Mr. Purple cannot.

Now we have Mr. Pink, who, constantly complains about his girly sounding name, will have Mr. Brown next to him, should he come up behind Mr. Purple it follows the same rules as were for Mr. Blue before.

Now, if everyone is through with the color names, lets get to work...

Fixed it, otherwise they all would have killed each other to be Mr. Black before they got into the intersection.

If what you said was true, then what purpose would the blue car's yield sign serve? Who would they be yielding to?
