Correct answer
They must not be open or opened before the vehicle has come to a complete stop.
The driver of a city bus must guarantee the safety of the passengers, avoiding situations of risk. For this reason, the doors must not be open or opened before the vehicle has come to a complete stop. Opening the doors before the bus has stopped completely could cause passengers attempting to board or alight to fall, be injured or be struck by traffic. The option "They may be open if it does not pose a danger" is incorrect because there is always a risk when travelling with the doors open. The option "They may be opened before the vehicle has come to a complete stop" is also incorrect, as it could create dangerous situations when passengers are getting on or off the vehicle. This requirement is regulated under public transport regulations to guarantee road and passenger safety.
