That is a good way to do it, but requires the bus lanes to be properly arranged in the first place.
It's useless to give priority to a vehicle that is packed behind other vehicles.
Also, considering the amount of busses and variety of bus routes over here (all of which tend to be mostly packed), it can't really be considered doable everywhere.
There have been some places where separate, divided lanes have been set for a special bus service ^[kind of like a tram service, just with more versatility in case some areas don't have space for a separate lane], but they turn out to be only heavily used during the rush hours, while during other times, tend to be mostly empty, again, because not every road has enough width to break into a bus lane.
