You must yield the right-of-way to an approaching vehicle when:

The other driver is driving recklessly
Your light is yellow
You reach an uncontrolled intersection
You reach a four-way stop

The correct answer is: You reach a four-way stop

If you reach a four-way stop, you are required to yield the right-of-way to any approaching vehicle. This is because at a four-way stop, all vehicles are required to come to a complete stop and then proceed in the order in which they arrived at the intersection. Not yielding in this situation could result in an accident. Option A is incorrect because a reckless driver does not have the right-of-way in any situation. Option B is incorrect because yellow lights indicate that the light will soon be turning red and drivers should proceed with caution, but it does not require them to yield the right-of-way. Option C is incorrect because at an uncontrolled intersection, drivers should approach with caution but do not have to yield unless there is a stop sign present.
