In the context of an uncontrolled intersection, an oncoming vehicle making a left turn must yield the right of way to any vehicle that is proceeding straight through the intersection. This is because vehicles that are traveling straight have the priority over those turning left from the opposite direction. The principle behind this rule is to help prevent collisions and ensure smoother traffic flow at intersections with no traffic lights or signs to dictate the right of way.

If an oncoming vehicle is turning left and there are no other signals, traffic controls, or pedestrians obstructing the flow, it must wait until the way is clear of traffic approaching from its left. The other options do not align with this rule: yielding to pedestrians is important but is not the context of this situation; suggesting that one should go first lacks adherence to established right-of-way laws; and signaling does not influence the inherent right of way concerning a left turn at an uncontrolled intersection.
