Question: When approaching a bus stop where a cyclist is waiting ahead of your stopped bus, what is the safest practice?

Answer options: ✅ Wait for the cyclist to proceed before opening the bus door and having passengers disembark.

  • Signal to the cyclist to pass your bus on the left.
  • Open the door and allow passengers to disembark, assuming the cyclist will wait.
  • Honk your horn to alert the cyclist to your presence and intent.

Correct answer: Wait for the cyclist to proceed before opening the bus door and having passengers disembark.

Explanation: To ensure passenger safety and avoid a collision, it is safest to wait for the cyclist to clear the area before opening the bus door and allowing passengers to exit, as disembarking passengers may not be aware of approaching cyclists. This minimizes the risk of a 'dooring' incident or collision.
