In Danish traffic rules, does the duty to yield to pulling-out buses in built-up areas apply on rural roads with speed limits above 50 km/h?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: A. No, outside built-up areas the bus driver must yield to flowing traffic before entering the lane
- Step 1: Færdselsloven § 19 restricts the bus yield rule to roads in built-up areas; on rural roads where speeds are higher (e.g. 80 km/h), the bus driver must yield to traffic in the lane. Answer: No, outside built-up areas the bus driver must yield to flowing traffic before entering the lane. Why not the others: Applying the rule at 80 km/h would cause high-speed rear-end collisions, public transport status does not alter rural rules, and expressway stops have deceleration lanes.
