Yes, in some countries they are called yield signs. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yield_sign According to http://www.informationfreeway.org/api/0.6/*%5Bhighway=yield%5D http://www.informationfreeway.org/api/0.6/*%5Bhighway=giveway%5D http://www.informationfreeway.org/api/0.6/*%5Bhighway=give_way%5D the OSM database contains 98 instances of highway=yield (9 distinct users) 25 instances of highway=giveway (2 distinct users) 13 instances of highway=give_way (3 distinct users) My personal preference would have been to use give_way, since it follows the tradition of using British English as the source of tag names, but the majority of mappers so far have chosen yield.
