This white-bar signal controls a reserved bus lane on a road that also has ordinary lanes. Which vehicles must obey its indications?

Correct answer

Vehicles travelling in that reserved lane.

Where a lane is reserved for buses or for buses, taxis and other vehicles, these signals apply only to vehicles travelling in that lane. A bus in a separate ordinary lane is not covered simply because it is a bus. Without such a reserved lane, they apply to trams and regular-service buses. A steady vertical bar permits straight-ahead travel; a flashing vertical or oblique bar requires stopping as for a steady amber light.
