Are you obliged to stop the vehicle in the presented situation?

💡 Explanation

Correct answer: YES

🔍 Situation analysis: You are approaching a tram stop where a tram is stationary with its doors open. There is no boarding island, meaning passengers getting off the public transport vehicle are stepping directly onto the road you are currently driving on.

📖 Explanation of the rule: If a tram stop is not equipped with a boarding island for passengers, a driver is legally required to stop the vehicle to allow passengers to safely board or exit the tram. You must wait until the boarding process is finished and the pedestrians have cleared the road. This is a fundamental rule for protecting vulnerable road users.

💡 Tip: Do not attempt to "squeeze past" the tram if the doors are open or if passengers are still on the road. Carefully observe pedestrian movement – even as the tram starts to move, ensure the path ahead is completely clear before you proceed.
