According to the Missouri Department of Revenue (DOR) point system violation table failure to yield falls under the section of violations which are assigned 2 points.
The list states that whether a state, county, or municipal violation this type of violation will come with 2 points. These violations will only have points assessed if the person was operating a motor vehicle at the time of the traffic offense.
From the fine schedules we have seen for parts of MO it appears the fine amount for failure to yield usually runs around $100 however it can vary depending upon the county and jurisdiction you received the ticket since court costs, fees, etc can vary.
If you received a citation for failure to yield which resulted in an accident then you should contact the court listed on the ticket to find out specific information on the fine amount and any other penalties you could be facing.
