However at that time the yield sign had been run over and it was almost laying on the ground.
That was 1/2022. It's back up in 2/2022.

Regardless of the existence of the sign, the proper way to deal with that kind of intersection is to look for cross traffic and yield to any.

The right turn lane has a yield sign.
No it doesn't.

Images taken in 1/2022, 2/2022, and 3/2022 show a yield sign. It’s possible it was changed to something else later.

Keep in mind that other people were talking about traffic lights in images that were not controlling that turn.
