A problem (perhaps a show stopper)
is that most bus lanes do not allow


Er, I meant enable

buses to overtake stopped buses.


What if the express buses took the bus
lane but moved out into main traffic once
approaching a bus stop with stopped buses?


By the time the adjacent queue of cars had moved enough for the express bus
to get through, the stopped bus would have pulled away and so would remain
ahead of the express bus. Repeat procedure at every stop until bus lane
ends.
