When you approach a station for public transport of persons provided with bay, driving on the lane next to the shoulder or curb, and the bus stopped in the station signals the intention to leave, you are obliged to reduce the speed and if needed to stop to allow it to re-enter the traffic.
We must note that the bus whose driver signals the intention to re-enter the traffic from the station provided with bay has priority ONLY over the vehicles that move behind it, and if the road has several lanes on the direction this has priority ONLY over the vehicles that move behind it on the first lane.
The correct answer is: B
Regulation** - Article 131
(1) At the approaching of a station for public transport of persons provided with bay, from which the driver of such a vehicle signals the intention to leave, the driver of the vehicle that moves on the lane next to the shoulder or the curb is obliged to reduce the speed and, if needed, to stop to allow it the re-entering into the traffic.

OUG* - Article 43
[...]
(2) The driver of a vehicle that moves on the lane situated next to the edge of the carriageway must give priority to the vehicles that perform public transport of persons only when their drivers signal the intention to re-enter the traffic from the stations provided with bays and have made sure that through their maneuver they do not endanger the safety of the other participants in the traffic.
