トロリーバスロシア

A trolleybus is an electrically powered bus that normally receives electricity from overhead wires while travelling on ordinary road wheels.

No. A tram runs on rails and follows the path of its tracks. A trolleybus has ordinary tyres and is steered like a conventional bus.

Yes. A trolleybus uses an electric motor, but unlike a battery-electric bus it traditionally receives most or all of its operating power from overhead electrical wires.

Electrical current is normally collected from overhead wires through poles or another current-collection system mounted on the vehicle.

Some trolleybuses can. Modern vehicles may have batteries or auxiliary motors that allow limited operation away from the overhead wiring.

Yes. Because it is steered rather than rail-guided, a trolleybus can move sideways within the range permitted by its overhead electrical connection and road layout.

Yes, where local rules permit. Trolleybuses operating public-transport services can normally use infrastructure reserved for authorised buses and public transport.

This depends on the local traffic law. Some countries require other drivers to allow public-transport buses, including trolleybuses, to leave designated stops.

Yes. Passengers may be boarding, leaving or crossing the roadway. Drivers should approach carefully and give passengers sufficient space where required.

A trolleybus operating entirely on electric power produces no combustion-engine exhaust emissions at the vehicle. Non-exhaust emissions from tyres, brakes and road wear can still occur.
