Question 1195 in the bank

For how long should a bus stop in a bus stop?

  1. It is permitted to stop for an unrestricted period of time.
  2. For as long as it takes to load passengers – this always takes more time than unloading.
  3. For as llong as it takes for passengers to get on the bus with their luggage.
  4. Correct answer: For as long as it takes to load and unload passengers.

Why this is the answer

The correct answer in the official bank: For as long as it takes to load and unload passengers.

A bus stop is meant only for a short stop to let passengers off and on, so the bus should stay there only as long as loading and unloading actually takes. Staying longer blocks the stop for other buses and disrupts traffic. Counting only boarding time is wrong, because passengers getting off also need time, and the actual need sets the duration.
