In an urban area, is it compulsory to allow a bus to merge from a designated stop?
A)No, it is not compulsory, but it is recommended.
B)Yes.
C)Yes, and it is also compulsory to stop if necessary.Correct
When we see a driver attempting to join the flow of traffic, we must facilitate the manoeuvre as much as possible, especially if it is a bus intending to merge from a designated stop.
Within built-up areas, in order to facilitate the movement of collective passenger transport vehicles leaving designated stops, drivers of other vehicles must:
- move laterally when possible,
- reduce their speed, provided they can do so without risk, without abruptness and signalling it correctly, and
- stop, if necessary, so that the bus can merge into traffic.
