Give way to buses whenever you can do so safely, especially when they signal to pull away from bus stops. Look out for people leaving the bus and crossing the road, especially school children who might see a parent, relative or friend across the street and dash across to see them without looking.

Buses improve traffic flow as they remove other vehicles from the road. Keeping buses running smoothly encourages more people to take them, reducing congestion. If you are following a bus, especially just before and after school hours, be prepared for it to make frequent stops.
