1. Bus lane
A bus lane is a traffic lane reserved primarily for buses or other authorised public-transport vehicles. It is intended to improve the reliability and flow of public transport by allowing authorised vehicles to avoid general traffic congestion.
Other road users, such as taxis, cyclists, motorcycles or vehicles carrying several occupants, may also be permitted when signs expressly allow them. The operating hours, permitted vehicles, direction of travel and rules for entering or crossing the lane depend on local traffic signs and regulations.
Which vehicles may use a bus lane in Romania?
Romanian public-transport lanes and their signs identify the permitted traffic. Read any local category or time information; a taxi or private coach must not be assumed to share every reserved bus lane.

May bicycles and motorcycles use a bus lane in Romania?
Bicycle and motorcycle access must be established from the actual signs and authorisation. The availability of space in the lane does not create permission.

Does bus-lane access also allow stopping or parking in Romania?
Do not use the reserved traffic space as an informal stopping or parking place. Read the separate controls for the bus lane, its stops and any marked bays.
