In the general rules of the road the person with the stopsign must first stop and THEN yield to others approaching the intersection; the person with the yield sign is only obligated to stop if others are "approaching." If another car is stopped at the stop sign, it is not "approaching" the intersection. If it is not stopped, then it is certainly approaching, and you would have to yield to the car on the right, even if the driver is breaking the law by not stopping! This is the general rule of not taking priority when you cannot do so safely.

∙ 12y agoIt depends on state law, however, generally speaking, a person at a yield sign never has the right of way unless they have already passed the yield sign and are in the lane. However, as I said, it depends on the state. Not every state has the same law. For instance, in Tennessee, the law does not give anyone the right of way, but instead merely states who must yield the right of way, and according to the driver handbook, that is not the same thing.
Additional: The question is not exactly clear. As above, the person to whom the Yield sign is displayed MUST yield the right-of-way to any other traffic, regardless of what maneuver they are making.
