Yield signs, IME, are way more common in the Northeast than the rest of the country. They’re taught specifically in driving schools, too, or at least were when I attended, complete with “if you aren’t sure, treat it as a stop sign” (which might annoy drivers behind you but is the safer play).

We also have a lot of rotaries/roundabouts here, too, so you get a lot more practice.
