Ahead of a quick google, which I'll have to do now (it's like having a button marked "Do not press this button", isn't it?) I would say LEFT on the basis that it's an American school bus.
 
as we are in england then the bus is supposedly travelling to the right,
but as this test originated in the good old US of A then it is travelling to the left .

Is the correct answer :thup: ( and the others that gave that answer )
 
You're kidding?
That's not the real answer.

Nope

There is no visible doors that means the doors are on the opposite side

People get on the bus at the front from the pavement so in the UK that means the bus is going right
 
Why don't some adults get this? it wasn't difficult to work out.

Because you can't work it out, that's why.

There are two equally valid answers, so the answer is "either". The reason young kids "get it" is that they don't see the wider possibilities. To kids, everything is in "their world" and so everything is the same as in their world. To a kid, the bus can only be going one way. As you get older, you realise thats not the case, and it could be this or it could be that. Picture has not enough info to come to a valid conclusion.

Well, kind of does really.
You can't see a door so the door must be in the other side, so it must be going right....

Took me about 20 seconds😙

The picture has everything you need to work out the answer - the lack of the visible door

It is as simple as that
 
I'll fess up I didn't think of the doors, I was looking at the the angle of reflections on the windows as some kind of clue, which I guess it isn't.

Also who's to say the bus isn't reversing!
