Cevap

You should anticipate that pedestrians may step out into the road from in front of or behind the stationary bus.
When passing a stationary bus at a bus stop, pedestrians who have just disembarked or are rushing to catch the bus may step directly into the carriageway from in front of or behind the vehicle, where they are hidden from view.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the primary hazard created by a stationary bus at a bus stop.
Recognise that a stopped bus obstructs visibility and attracts pedestrians getting on or off.
Large vehicles create physical sight barriers that hide pedestrians from approaching traffic.
2
Determine the most appropriate hazard anticipation response.
Expect pedestrians to suddenly emerge from behind or in front of the vehicle into your path.
Anticipating pedestrian movement allows the driver to adjust speed and be ready to stop safely.
