How fast does a bus drive?

0 views

Honestly, its infuriating how many variables affect a buss speed! Its not just a simple number. Legally, theyre supposed to be cautious, which is good, but it means sometimes they crawl along at 20 mph even on open roads. I get it – safetys paramount, especially with kids, but it can be agonizing to be stuck behind one, especially when youre already late. The 50mph highway limit sounds generous, but its rarely reached.

Okay, so how fast do buses really go? Ugh, it’s one of those “it depends” answers that just makes you want to scream, right? It’s not like there’s one magic number. I mean, legally, they’re supposed to be super careful, which, yeah, makes sense, especially when you think about all those kids on board. But honestly, sometimes it feels like they’re practically crawling!

Like, I swear I’ve been stuck behind buses going like, 20 mph on roads where you could easily go faster. And you’re just sitting there, thinking, “Come on, man! I’m already late!” Safety first, I get it, I really do. But still… agonizing!

I think the highway speed limit for them is something like 50 mph? Which sounds almost… generous? But let’s be real, when’s the last time you saw a bus actually doing 50 on the highway? Never, right? Or at least, very, very rarely. I just wish there was a bit more consistency, you know? A little less stop-and-go, a little more… reasonable speed. Is that too much to ask?
