Correct answer: A

Explanation

  1. Three lefts and one right leave two net left turns.

  2. Two left turns make 180∘180^\circ, so the bus heads opposite to east.

  3. It is heading west.

Worth noting

Counting net turns is faster than tracking each junction: lefts minus rights, then turn that many times.
