Buses are wider than cars.
Just look at this picture they're clearly much wider.
Imagine explaining euclidean shapes with it's wider, so it's wider' ...
But what the kid was asking is why arent cars designed to carry more people with all that wasted space & resources.
They weren't. They were a kid not an Internet hipster with no concept of delivery vehicles, disabled people, people with children or pets, people whose jobs and family lives require them to be able to leave and go somewhere at the drop of a hat, and people from tiny boutique nations founded before cars with excellent public transport that can quite easily get along without a car.
It would take me about 2.5 hours to get to work from home by bus. Each way. On a good day. With two transfers each way.
2x insulation, 2x windows motors, wider seats per person, and busses are actually noticeably wider than cars. Cars should take up between 1/2 and 2/3 of the lane they actually occupy, while busses and big rigs puch a lot closer to the actual width of a car lane.

tell that to the stupid F-150s. 2 Seats, no aisle, and subjectively wider than a bus
Between 1988 and now the f150 only increased in width by .9 of an inch. Parking spots are set by the size of the f150 because they are consistent and abundant.
Yeah but they were massive to start with, they've always been huge.
Europe has smaller parking spaces because Europe point blank refused to accommodate larger vehicles just because. The US is so obsessed with cars that the idea of going "no that thing is stupidly big we're not accommodating it", is not an acceptable thought.
Europe didn't refuse to accommodate larger vehicles. The simply couldn't. All the towns are significantly older than the oldest town in the USA. The town streets are narrower, and can't support the weight of larger vehicles. If there wasn't that constraint, there would be ltz suburbans everywhere.
That's because it has to accommodate wide arses. If you ever sit in one of their seats you just sort of get lost.
Smaller seats and slightly wider both sides.
But could it be twice as wider on one side, and not wider on the other?
Certified Philomena Cunk question.
Gosh I love her
Could be; isn't
Some buses have 2 seats on one side and only a row of single seats on the other side of the aisle, probably because they made that side not was wide as the other 🤔
The knight bus
A bus used for an activity that requires a bed?
I had a friend in university who loved trolling a girl. He told her that we should boycott American and British goods, and that he had made a website to help: BanGBUS.com
She actually went away to look at the site.
