In principle, you can detect yields if you have enough data and enough
GPS receivers.  If GPS-a and GPS-b are on the main and side road at
the same time, and GPS-b always yields to GPS-a, then you know you
have a yield situation.  Oh, and if cars on the side road don't always
stop, it might be a yield.

Of course, it also might be a stoplight, which throws everything off. :-)
