    For extra realism, they should sound the horn as well.

    No vietnamese agree with me, but I find the bus drivers here so polite to 2 wheelers. They use indicators, they just give a little beep if you're not aware of them, they leave lanes open for us to pass, just the other day I was going around the inside line of a roundabout, and a bus that had the right of way stayed out of my line until I passed instead of making me go behind.

    The mirrors on the Mexican buses being right at head level seems so dangerous.

    We have something similar for lorry drivers in at least some English cities, called "changing places". I don't remember if all licensed lorry drivers have to do it yet, or only those needing a higher qualification like FORS.
