You are driving a public transport bus outside the built-up area. Do you have priority in this situation when joining the traffic from the bus stop?

Correct answer: No

📖 Explanation of the rule: The priority privilege for a public transport bus joining traffic from a bus stop applies only within built-up areas. Drivers of other vehicles are then required to reduce their speed and, if necessary, stop to allow the bus to enter the lane. Outside built-up areas, this regulation does not apply; the bus driver joining the traffic must yield to all other vehicles traveling on the road.

💡 Tip: Remember that pulling out of a bus stop bay is always an act of joining the traffic. Outside built-up areas, ensure you are not forcing the right of way, as you are not covered by the regulation that facilitates bus departures from stops.
