When turning left, you must yield the right of way to oncoming traffic. There is no such thing as left of way, unless you are protected by a green left turn light. Always wait to see what the oncoming traffic is doing before turning left. Remember...there is no such thing as "left of way".

Does right hand turn lane yield to oncoming left turn traffic onto a highway on ramp if a yield sign present for right hand turners?
Yield means yield. Oncoming traffic already on the road has right of way. You merge when it is safe to do so.
Does right hand turn lane yield to oncoming left turn traffic onto a highway on ramp if no yield sign present for right hand turners.?
If you have a red light and left turners have a green light then yes. Otherwise the general rule is those turning left yield to those turning right.
What is an unprotected left turn?
It is a left turn where the turning driver must yield to oncoming traffic entering a cross-streets intersection because there is no left left turn signal facing that left-turning driver during which a red light stops oncoming traffic to protect the left turning vehicle. This holds in keep-to-the-right countries. For keep-to-left countries, there are, sometimes, protected right turns.
Is turning on red like going through a red light?
In many cities, a right on red is legal ONLY after you have made a full stop and there is no oncoming traffic. If you fail to stop and/or yield to traffic that has the green light, you will be charged.
When turning left at a green light do you stop then go or just go if theres no oncoming traffic?
You continue through the turn but only after you make sure that there is no oncoming traffic. It is your responsibility to yield to vehicles that are coming straight through the intersection.

When turning left on green if you have a left turn yield on green and the driver across from you has a yield sign and is turning right who has the right of way?
Yes, absolutely. The only exception is if the driver turning right has a yield sign. This is one of the most common mistakes I see in the area I live. Many times, the driver turning right has a yield sign. That would give priority to the driver turning left. However, if the driver turning right has no yield sign, she has the priority. There are so many yield signs in my area that drivers turning left automatically assume they have the right-of-way even if no yield sign is present for the driver turning right.
Is a left hand turn into traffic at an uncontrolled intersection legal?
Depending on a city, but it doesn't mean you have right of way if there is one or multiple uncomming cars. Then it would be an illegal turn.
