I take the bus sometimes, find it fairly convenient. When I am driving, however, I hate buses because they stop so often and block a lane of traffic while passengers c-r-a-w-l on and off. So, my proposal, is that the stops should be spaced out more. For example, the bus I take to/from work stops literally every two blocks. Ridiculous. If it stopped every four blocks, the average rider would have 1 extra block's walk - surely no big deal - but the delay to traffic would be halved and the bus trip would be faster too. Do that, and I'm happy to let them manipulate signals all day.
