PassBus Lane Reservation & Bus Lane Reservation Begins
Where: These signs are usually found on public roads in towns and cities, especially where public transport routes are common and busy.
Purpose: These signs indicate that a specific lane on the road is reserved only for buses. The aim is to ensure that buses can travel smoothly and efficiently, without being delayed by general traffic. The Bus Lane Reservation sign indicates that a particular lane is currently reserved for bus use, while the Bus Lane Reservation Begins sign shows the point where the reserved bus lane starts, meaning from that point onward the lane is strictly for buses only.
Action Required by Driver: If you are not driving a bus, do not drive in, enter, or stop in that lane. Driving in a bus lane when you are not allowed may result in a fine.
- Signs and markings — you may only enter the bus lane if road markings or signs allow it at certain times.
- Turning left — you may briefly enter the bus lane if you are turning left and the law permits brief entry for turning, but only when safe and legal to do so.
