Exactly. Bus drivers are better trained than regular drivers. In that respect I used to trust them more. But they are also people who might be into car culture. My partner had a London bus overtake her in an intersection and brake check her while she was cycling. Multiple times in a row. It was super dangerous. We complained to the bus company and they reported back that they put the driver on a mandatory training.
