My point was that it doesn’t need to be aerodynamic, because it won’t be going fast. I’m sure it is still capable of going fast, and that some bus routes go on the highway, but if the designers expected that to be happening with any regularity, they would have designed it with that in mind. Most busses are not aerodynamic because its not necessary. Busses are generally slow.
My commute to work is literally 15 minutes by car or 60 minutes by bus. Traffic is rarely a significant factor for me. It may sometimes add as much as 5 minutes to my travel time.
Would there be significant benefits if everyone used public transportation? Yes.
Do I want to spend an extra 90 minutes commuting every day? Not even a little bit.
