You are leaving a parking lot and want to turn left onto the street. To whom must you yield?

Why

A vehicle coming onto a roadway from a driveway, a private road or anywhere else that is not a roadway must stop and yield, both to traffic on the roadway and to pedestrians. The manual walks through the parking-lot case. If you were turning right, the traffic that matters is the vehicle coming from your left. Turning left, you cross the near lanes and join the far ones, so you have to yield to vehicles coming from both directions. And if someone is walking across the lot exit, you wait for that person too. The one-sided answers each cover only half of the traffic you cut across. Leaving a lot to the left therefore means three checks rather than one, the traffic from your left, the traffic from your right, and anyone on foot crossing the exit.
