(c)The operator of a vehicle within an intersection, intending to turn to the left shall yield the right of way to any vehicle approaching from the opposite direction which is within the intersection or so close thereto as to constitute hazard at any time during the turning movement and shall continue to yield the right of way to such approaching vehicles until such time as the left turn can be made with reasonable safety. CH. 3 GENERAL PROVISIONS

(d)Said operator turning left, having so yielded and having given a signal when and as required by this Code, may make such left turn and the drivers of all other vehicles approaching the intersection from said opposite direction shall yield the right of way to the driver making the left turn.

(e)The operator of any vehicle, upon approaching any “yield right of way” sign 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 and shall continue to yield the right of way to such approaching vehicles until such time as he can proceed with reasonable safety. An operator, having so yielded, may then proceed and the operators of all other vehicles approaching the intersection on the intersecting roadway shall yield the right of way to him.
