I know the *expected* answer but in reality it depends
on the country in which the bus is located. So, there is
no actual answer without the required extra info. ;)

I agree that image is bullshit. There is no way to discern the front or rear of the bus. The answer makes no logical sense, since the door could be on EITHER side of the opposite side of the bus, based on that picture.

The door is on the opposite (unseen) side to us.
Which end the door is on is of no consequence.

If the bus is in America, it will move off to the left.
If the bus in in Australia, it will move off to the right.

Without knowing the country, there is no answer.
The internet is global, so puzzles like this need a
global aspect to them. As there is no global aspect,
no logical answer is possible. The whole thing is
a fail by the creator (which isn't Netmaestro).

Agreed, this forum wasn't a good place for it as I didn't consider jurisdictions where cars don't use the right side of the road.

I decided the bus drives to the right, because I don´t know School busses :D
