What is the purpose of Buses?

Question

I was driving around today and a thought struck me.

What are Buses?

Everyday i notice these large red vehicles getting in my way.

They are full of people of a working class appearance,who look as though thier souls have been burned away.

Are they prisoners of somekind?

Would i be able to have a go on this bus if i asked?

Answer 2

A bus is a large road vehicle designed to carry numerous passengers in addition to the driver and sometimes a conductor. The name is a neologic version of the Latin omnibus, which means "for all."

Answer 3

Answer 4

by riding buses we're saving on gasoline  , money and the worry about people who drive cars daydreaming while driving

Answer 5

busses are transportation for people who don't feel like driving/walking.

and why did u say "who look as though thier souls have been burned away."

the people are just probably waiting for their stop or are just bored waiting

Answer 6

umm, duhh.....are you from a different country. buses are transportation for people to get around in. if they don't have vehicles  or if they don't feel  like driving they use public transportation. and for college students they use buses alot also.

Answer 7

I don't know if they have such in the US, but here in Malaysia, we have manual transmission buses with turbochargers, and yes, the boost goes off after dark!

I've got a chance to be at the bus driver's seat before, and trust me, even just for a small round, you'll get a new driving experience... and better still, although I'm so used to driving manual, driving manual in a bus is so much different. The clutch requires more strength to push, the gearstick is longer and more interestingly hard to engage as well as the accelerator (organ-type pedal) has a different feel from the normal hanging-type pedal (as well as surprisingly ergonomic).

Answer 8

Answer 13

Those big red vehicles are alien transportation, stay away from them or be vaporized with their laser guns!

Answer 14

They're public transportation.  Instead of driving, pay a fare and take the bus.  You'll spend alot less on a bus pass than on gas.  Good way to cut down on pollution, with less vehicles on the road.

Answer 15

public transit.  and yes.  good luck.
