You are driving in lane 2 of a two-lane road. A bus (A) stopped at the right edge ahead has its left turn signal on and is about to pull out. Which TWO are the safest actions? Select TWO
- Your car (blue) is driving in lane 2
- A bus (A) is stopped at the right edge ahead
- A has its left turn signal on
- A person is standing on the right sidewalk next to the bus
💡 Hint
Drivers must drive at a speed and in a manner that does not endanger others, according to traffic conditions (Article 48(1) of the Road Traffic Act). Rather than racing a bus that is pulling out, first think about who might be in the spots hidden by the bus.
Answer: ②, ⑤
Explanation
Drivers must drive at a speed and in a manner that does not endanger others given the traffic conditions (Road Traffic Act Article 48(1)), so instead of racing a bus that is pulling out, slow down and let it in. People who got off a bus may try to cross where the bus hides them, so watch the person on the sidewalk too. When following the bus, keep enough distance to avoid it if it stops suddenly (Article 19(1)).
