    On the trams in Melbourne, the doors have little stop signs on them to remind cars that alighting passengers have right of way. It makes sense as the passengers don’t have visibility of the cars, but the cars can see the tram stopping, and the doors opening.

    Also, the tram can’t wait for traffic to stop before letting passengers out, then continuing on its route. They have to keep schedule, else the whole network suffers.
