The bus industry probably have some of the biggest competition out of any industry around. Difference is they're not with each other. The competition for buses is cars, taxis, rail etc.
Do you really think if there was more competition therefore less revenue, more drivers, more buses, more costs to run the service they'd be investing in new buses. All you'll end up with is 10 or so main bus routes with brand new buses, all the mod cons etc and petty competition. Then the less desirable bus routes with fares through the roof, old buses, running not on time and not running past 7pm as people won't use them and will be all driving.
