What does a sign with a picture of a hand indicate?

  1. Stop sign ahead.

  2. Yield the right-of-way.

  3. Do not enter or no entry.

  4. No left turn allowed.

The correct answer is: Yield the right-of-way.

A sign with a picture of a hand indicates that drivers should yield the right-of-way at the upcoming intersection. This sign is typically seen at yield intersections, where drivers should slow down and allow traffic in the other lane to go first. Option A, a stop sign ahead, is incorrect because a stop sign is usually shaped like an octagon and does not have a picture of a hand. Option C, do not enter or no entry, is incorrect because this sign usually has a red circle with a diagonal line through it. Option D, no left turn allowed, is incorrect because this sign is usually shaped like a square or rectangle and has a picture of an arrow pointing left with a red circle and line through it. These options do not match the description of a sign with a picture of a hand.
