I don't really understand why motorists would ignore yield signs but adhere to stop signs. Just put a cop there who gives tickets, it's easy money for the government.

In my country the government literally uses traffic violations as a hidden tax.

    Because yield signs are less clear-cut. At a stop sign you stop regardless of oncoming traffic. At a yield sign you need to check if there’s oncoming traffic and make a decision as to whether it’s close enough that you should yield.
