Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: Stay back and allow the bus to complete the turn..
Always read the road ahead and be prepared to react to any traffic situation. In this case; you should be aware that the bus will need extra space to make the turn. So you should not overtake it if by doing so you would cause oncoming traffic to alter speed or course. Remember; you should never overtake when approaching a junction.
