Sharing the RoadStandalone practice
You drive in the right lane. Ahead, a city bus at a bus stop turns on its left signal and starts to move back into your lane. What should you do?
A city bus B signals left from a curb bay while blue A approaches in the adjacent travel lane. A detail identifies the bus signal.
Correct answer: Yield and let the bus move back into traffic
Why
Buses need a lot of time to get back into traffic, and their passengers may be standing. Letting the bus in keeps traffic moving and prevents crashes. The bus driver must still drive with care for everyone on the road.
