Other drivers must yield to the bus when it signals to move from the curb.

Other drivers must yield to the bus when it signals to move from the curb where the speed limit is less than 60 km/h.

Bus drivers always have the right-of-way and can pull out from a curb or change lanes anytime.

Bus drivers are not responsible for what happens to another vehicle that fails to yield to the bus.

The Motor Vehicle Act gives public transit buses the right-of-way when a bus driver signals to move from the curb lane or a bus stop into the traffic flow and the bus displays a sign telling motorists to yield. This rule applies to locations where the speed limit is less than 60 km/h. Of course, the bus driver, like any other driver who legally has the right-of-way, is still responsible for making sure that it’s safe to pull out into traffic.
