While driving a bus, how will you turn right at the intersection?

While driving a bus, how will you turn right at the intersection?
Explanation

Correct answer: You will choose the trajectory, taking into account that the back of the bus wings to the side during a turn.

When driving a long vehicle, such as a bus, it is important to be aware of the phenomenon of rear off-tracking when turning. This means the rear wheels follow an arc with a smaller radius than the front wheels. Therefore, to execute the manoeuvre safely and avoid mounting the kerb or hitting an obstacle, a driving path must be chosen that is sufficiently far from the right-hand edge of the carriageway.
