Yes, you should slow down and give way to the bus that has just pulled into the bus stop. This is a common traffic rule in many regions to ensure the safety of passengers boarding or alighting and to facilitate the smooth flow of public transport. Specifically, when the speed limit is 50 or 60 km/h or lower, drivers must slow down and allow the bus to leave the bus stop safely. If necessary, the driver should stop and give way to the bus when it signals its intention to pull out. This rule helps keep bus schedules on time and prevents dangerous situations on the road.

Additionally, even if the bus driver forgets to signal, drivers must still adjust their speed to the traffic situation to avoid accidents. The bus driver also has a duty to signal clearly and ensure it is safe to move off the stop.
