low key been driving 10 years and im not sure who has to yield in this situation.
Say you are at a red light and the light just turned green. does car 1 have to yield to the bus? or will the bus zipper in between 1 and 2?

The laws in your jurisdiction may vary, but locally the practice is that if the front of your vehicle is ahead of the front of the bus, then you're good. After all, the turn signals are in your blind spot, so you "may not have seen that it was finished its stop."
But if the bus creeps ahead of you, that's the cue it wants to merge before you and you yield to it.
So in your picture, the geometry of the intersection means the bus is ahead of car 1, car 1 should have ample sight-lines to perceive the bus' turn signals and movements, and car 1 should yield if the bus is clearly finished its stop and going to move.

it wants to merge into your lane, it has to yield to you. They would put up signs frequently that say "Must yield to bus" if they cared.
Take your right of way bro. People on the bus are POOR. They don't matter.
Honestly, yielding to it is just going to make car 2 honk at you, or worse rear end you.

something exciting like professional racing or mere hooning, or possibly just something that would involve a lot more hours over those 10 years like driving a delivery or service vehicle as opposed to just his own passenger car.

I think 1 has to proceed, 2 has to yield. 1 is already in his lane/direction of travel and has right of way, bus is merging in. 2 is far enough back that it should give way.
But what a shitty fucking intersection holy shit nuke toronto please

some places do this and actually have signs on the buses themselves, sorta like how school buses have deployable stop signs (city bus ones are just bolted on the ass all the time though)

>light turns green
>bus driver activates the left-hand indicator, thus communicating to nearby drivers that he wishes to change lane
>1 and 2, seeing the bus and its active indicator, then slow down a little to allow the bus to slide in depending on their relative positions
Must there be a rule for people to point to and interpret and quibble over? Why not just act as necessary in the moment to ensure everyone gets along?

Communication is not about inviting new and exciting catch phrases to cut everything down to the fewest characters to smash into your phone. If that's your goal, drop all pretenses and use only grunts, sighs, gestures, and skibidi toilet to get your point across, cretin.
Saying,
>I've had a license for a decade, but I seldom drive except for personal errands and commuting,
makes you sound like an adult human being and not some infantile rube.

"low key" has been a phrase for decades and always has meant "in an unexciting and/or LITERALLY amateurish(as in non-professional) way", zoomers just brought it back and overuse the shit out of it to the point that it is used more to emphasize utterly routine complaints (similar to how "literally" started being used more figuratively around 20 years ago) e.g.
>I'm low-key hungry as fuck = I acknowledge that everyone gets hungry, but nigga I still want lunch
>low key I'm gonna be fucking late = I will be tardy and am willing to admit it, but please do not inform anyone who may punish me
>i've been low-key driving for 10 years = i've been driving for a long time, but only in a casual manner and have lost awareness of advanced techniques and legal edge cases
