A turn signal is a legally-required indication of intent, but it does not automatically grant right-of-way. When the bus pulls out in the beginning of the video, that appeared to be returning to traffic from a bus stop, which a number of states have indeed granted automatic right of way (NJT and NJ private buses all have Yield-sign stickers on the bus rear to indicate the NJ state law [39:4-87.1]). But at 0:59, the bus is simply changing lanes to avoid a row of parked cars, and is required to wait for a safe opening before completing the action, turn signal or not. |
