Revision question · Carrying passengers

Where may passengers be thrown when a bus takes a bend too fast?

Revision material from the imported DVSA bank includes source-checked Lanekind learning corrections. These corrections are not newly issued official examination questions, and practice does not reproduce a live test paper.

Answer options

Towards the outside of the bend

Towards the inside of the bend

Towards the front of the bus

Towards the rear of the bus

Show the answer

Towards the outside of the bendThis was the right answer

Turning corners or travelling around bends too quickly will push passengers towards the outside of the bend. In addition, the weight of the passengers being transferred to one side of the vehicle will make the bus even more unstable. This will make steering out of the bend more difficult.
