Core: Letting a bus pull away, a tram stop without a platform, and the bus gate

The bus-stop rule (Book p.92) has three parts you must remember separately. First: it concerns a bus that INDICATES it wants to pull away, not a bus that is already stopped to let passengers get on or off. Second: 'all buses' is meant literally — a touring coach on a school trip counts just as much as an ordinary regional bus, but a small local shuttle bus is named as an exception. Third: the rule is tied to the built-up area — outside it, for example on a provincial road, you do not need to give way to a bus pulling away. The tram-stop rule (Book p.93) is narrower: only at a stop WITHOUT a refuge island or platform are you required to give way to crossing passengers. The book itself calls this a situation that has 'almost disappeared', since most tram stops nowadays do have a refuge island — but where one is missing, the duty still applies. The bus gate (Book p.93) is not a priority rule but a physical/legal closure: only buses may and can pass through it. A car that tries to enter anyway gets irrevocably stuck.
