What makes you think buses don't have to deal with traffic while cars inherently do?
Bus lanes.
I guess my city is too old to have streets wide enough for dedicated bus lanes.
I doubt it. Reduce both directions of car lanes by a couple of meters and suddenly you've got a bus lane. Alternatively if it's narrower work it into a one way system and the lane that was the other direction becomes space for the bus lane.
Special lanes and priorities! They're a thing! Literally in the city next to mine (not necessary cus the town is small enough).
