Correct answer
Yes, where the section’s regulation authorises it, regardless of occupant count.
Yes, on sections whose regulation authorises these buses and subject to applicable conditions and signs, regardless of occupant count. Article 35 includes buses above 3,500 kg and articulated buses where specified in the list of authorised sections. The competent authority may be DGT or, where applicable, a regional or local traffic authority. Carrying passengers alone is insufficient, and there is no automatic authorisation for every HOV lane.
