If you are taking a driving test in a CA DMV you will get marked off a point for stoping at a yield sign without necessity. Whether or not you will get a citation from a police officer for doing so is a different question.
It means that the bus is about to pull into the lane of travel (presumably from a bus stop), and that you are expected to yield to the bus to let it in.
Yes, technically it is. Once at a stop sign, one must STOP--then proceed through the intersection to the other side. Reversing could result in confusion or an accident if anyone is behind you as that is NOT expected and normally should not occur.
A yield street sign looks like an upside down isoceles triangle.
A flashing red light at an intersection is a stop sign. All rules apply as they would to a stop sign.
Not in the UK, failing to stop at a stop sign is a motoring offence, you can be fined and points added to your driving licence, but you will not get a criminal record.

Let's identify first what a Yield sign is. The Yield sign is the only sign on the road (US) that is in the shape of a upside-down triangle with rounded corners, similarly to the stop sign, the stop sign is the only sign on the road that's in the shape of a octagon (has 8 sides). You'll usually see a Yield sign at an intersection, for instance traffic circles. You're not required to stop at the yield sign but you can if you have too to give way to traffic that doesn't have to stop period. Yield signs are not a sign that you blow through. The yield sign means that "You're not required to stop, but you don't have the right-of-way at this intersection." The yield sign is also less restrictive than the stop sign, you still have to give the right-of-way to other traffic, but you're not required to stop at a yield sign.
you only have to stop at a yield sign if there is cross traffic - if it would not be safe for you to continue through the intersection. Typically only one road at the intersection will have a yield sign - the other one will either have no sign or a stop sign/light.

A stop sign, a One Way sign, and a Yield sign.
In road transport a Yield or Give Way sign indicated that a driver must be prepared to stop and yield or stop for another driver who has right of way

A yield sign is used when a lane of traffic is entering another roadway but is not required to make a complete stop. It is most commonly used when a roadway is coming to an intersection with another roadway and there is a specific right turn lane which bypasses the actual intersection. Placed there will be a yield sign. The duty of the driver facing a yield sign is to yield the right of way to all traffic on the roadway in which they want to enter. It is illegal to enter that roadway unless it can be done safely.
Yes.
No, running a stop sign anywhere it is needed is illegal!
At intersections without "STOP" or "YIELD" signs, slow down and be ready to stop. Yield to traffic and pedestrians already in the intersection or just entering the intersection.At "T" intersections without "STOP" or "YIELD" signs, yield to traffic and pedestrians on the through road. They have the right-of-way.
