Correct answer
YES
Explanation
In the video, at dusk, we are riding a moped along a street in town, in the right lane with bus stop line P-17; ahead of us, at a stop next to the tram tracks without an island for passengers, a bus is stopping, and pedestrians are crossing our lane to the bus. You acted correctly by stopping the moped in this place - the answer is YES.
If a stop is not equipped with an island for passengers and a tram is pulling into the stop or standing at it, the driver is obliged to stop the vehicle in such a place and for such a time as to allow pedestrians to walk freely to the vehicle or to the pavement. The Road Traffic Act states that these rules apply accordingly to the movement of other public transport vehicles, so this also applies to a bus at such a stop. When you stop, you leave the pedestrians room to cross, and you move off only when they have left the roadway.
