In a built-up area, a bus signals that it intends to leave a marked stop. What must other drivers do?

Correct answer

Facilitate departure, slowing down or stopping if necessary.

Facilitate its departure: move laterally if possible and safe or slow down, stopping if necessary under Article 73. The bus must signal and take the precautions necessary to prevent crashes; it does not have absolute priority to pull out without checking traffic. The duty is not limited to school buses.
