En 1967, il réalise Trois milliards d'un coup, un film policier fortement inspiré du vol du train postal Glasgow-Londres. L'œuvre, qui contient des scènes d'action spectaculaires, attire l'attention de l'acteur Steve McQueen, qui l'engage pour réaliser le film Bullitt, qui sera le premier film que Yates tourne aux États-Unis. C'est à Peter Yates que l'on doit la célèbre poursuite en voitures dans les rues de San Francisco. À sa sortie, en 1968, Bullitt rencontre un grand succès et aura une influence certaine.

Westlake et mettant en vedette Robert Redford, L'Œil du témoin avec Sigourney Weaver dans le rôle d'une reporter de télévision, Suspect dangereux avec Cher, Une femme en péril avec Kelly McGillis et Jeff Daniels. Mais Peter Yates aura également abordé le film d'aventures avec La Guerre de Murphy et Les Grands Fonds ainsi que le drame sentimental avec John et Mary, un film avec Dustin Hoffman et Mia Farrow qu'il réalise tout de suite après Bullitt. Peter Yates a même touché à l'heroic fantasy avec Krull. En 1979, il produit et dirige La Bande des quatre, une comédie dramatique à petit budget centrée sur un adolescent féru de vélo. Le film récolte cinq nominations aux Oscars, dont celles du meilleur film et du meilleur réalisateur. Quatre ans plus tard, Yates réalise le film L'Habilleur, adaptation de la célèbre pièce de Ronald Harwood mettant en vedette Tom Courtenay et Albert Finney. À nouveau, le film est en lice pour cinq Oscars dont, une fois encore, ceux du meilleur film et du meilleur réalisateur.
