No, because the buses themselves are not a reasonable working environment. Every single person I know who can take the train to work does, many of them able to work (on trains that allow working - that's not, e.g. subways anywhere I've seen).
Not a single one of those will use a bus, even if it is overall faster (better route, etc.).
Driverless cars are likely to provide a reasonable working environment.
