As driver of a regular bus, you want to leave a bus stop. What is correct?

When leaving a bus stop as a regular bus driver, you must indicate your intention to move off by using your indicator shortly before setting off. This helps alert other road users that you are about to rejoin traffic. However, you are not allowed to force your way into the traffic flow; other drivers should let you merge if possible, but you must wait if it is dangerous or if there is no suitable gap. Using the hazard warning lights is not correct in this situation—they are only for special warning situations, not for rejoining traffic. Remember: always indicate, and only join when it is safe, without forcing your way.
