Within a built-up area, a bus signals that it is about to pull out from a signposted stop. What must other drivers do?

Correct answer

Help it join traffic, stopping if necessary.

Facilitate the bus joining traffic: move laterally where possible or reduce speed safely, stopping if necessary. This does not give the bus absolute priority or require every driver to stop in every case. The bus driver must signal the manoeuvre and take precautions to avoid accidents. The specific obligation to stop if needed concerns departure from signposted stops within built-up areas.
