Answer 6

because we make bus stops, for the buses. and because the bus stops is the place for all buses and wait passenger.

Answer 7

For the sake of Public conveniance.

That will help the people for systematc boarding n also to get down

comfortably.

Answer 8

It is done to keep on schedule. At times traffic is light thus causing the buses to move through the route quicker and when that happens, we'd end up missing our bus and would be late to where we are going.

Can't the bus just drive slower you say? Sure but that would not be a good idea as running the bus engine at low speed causes twice the wear on the engine internal parts compared to driving at regular speeds. The buses would break down more and would be out of service which would suck fir us all and then bus company would have to raise fares later on to make up for it.

Hope that helps,

Answer 13

because they ARE buses

Answer 14

Because they're on a "time" schedule.  If you know a bus is scheduled at a certain "stop" at a certain "time", they have to meet that schedule.  If they're running "ahead of schedule" they have to remain at a bus stop until they know it's time to meet their next stop !  Generally that can happen (they're ahead of schedule) if there are NO PASSENGERS TO PICK-UP at bus stops along the way !
