As long as buses have to share the road with cars, it cannot be a faster (and therefore superior) mode of transportation than private automobiles.

A bus that shares the road with cars forces riders to both wait for the bus and to wait in traffic, while a car only has to wait in traffic.

For riding the bus to be superior to driving, the time spent waiting for the bus needs to be made up with time saved skipping traffic.
