Question 948 in the bank

What is the problem in the following picture?

A dark car parked at the roadside next to a bus shelter, beside a colourful flower stall and yellow signs; road with white lane lines.
  1. Correct answer: The bus cannot enter the bay and will disturb traffic when stopping.
  2. The presence of the florist in the station makes the passengers’ stay in it more pleasant and it causes no problem.
  3. The presence of the florist causes the bus to linger too much time in the station.
  4. The flowers placed at the station block the view of the passengers waiting in it.

Why this is the answer

The correct answer in the official bank: The bus cannot enter the bay and will disturb traffic when stopping.

A bus bay lets the bus pull out of the traffic lane while passengers get on and off. The car parked in the bay blocks it, so the bus will have to stop in the lane, holding up traffic behind it and possibly causing risky overtaking. That is why parking or stopping in a bus bay is prohibited. The flower stall is not the real problem here.
