* Canada - Yielding to buses

It could be a traffic stopper, literally if not figuratively...

Halifax,Nova Scotia,Canada -The Chronicle Herald.ca -Dec 6. 2007: -- We’re referring to a bill tabled in the legislature last week by MLA Leonard Preyra. He wants to force drivers of other vehicles to yield to transit buses trying to merge with traffic after picking up passengers... The proposed law has sparked mixed reviews. Metro Transit spokeswoman Lori Patterson welcomes the proposal, saying it would send a clear signal that public transit is important to deal with traffic challenges and environmental issues. But Maritime Taxi owner Dean Chaplin disagrees, complaining there are enough road-safety laws on the books without adding any more... When Mr. Preyra’s bill becomes law, and we hope it quickly does so with the unanimous approval of all parties, it will hopefully result in motorists being more courteous in all of their driving. Anything that will reduce road rage and enhance the flow of traffic should be widely encouraged...
