   (A)   The Board of Public Works and Safety is authorized to determine and designate intersections where particular hazard exists upon other than through streets and to determine:
      (1)   Whether vehicles shall stop at one or more entrances to any such intersection, in which event it shall cause to be erected a stop sign at every such place where a stop is required; or
      (2)   Whether vehicles shall yield the right-of-way to vehicles on a different street at such intersection as prescribed in division (B)(2), in which event it shall cause to be erected a yield sign at every place where obedience thereto is required.
('67 Code, § 73.10)
   (B)   (1)   The driver of a vehicle approaching a yield sign, if required to stop for safety, shall stop before entering the crosswalk on the near side of the intersection or, in the event there is no crosswalk, at a clearly marked stop line, but if none, then at the point nearest the intersecting roadway where the driver has a view of approaching traffic on the intersecting roadway.
      (2)   Except when directed to proceed by a police officer or traffic-control signal, every driver of a vehicle approaching a stop intersection indicated by a stop sign shall stop before entering the crosswalk on the near side of the intersection or, in the event there is no crosswalk, shall stop at a clearly marked stop line, but if none, then at the point nearest the intersecting roadway where the driver has a view of approaching traffic on the intersecting roadway before entering the intersection.
