Why did Blaise Pascal invent buses?

Blaise Pascal did not invent buses; however, he is credited with creating an early form of public transport in 1662 in Paris. He developed a system of horse-drawn carriages that followed fixed routes and schedules, aimed at providing affordable transportation for the public. This innovation laid the groundwork for modern public transportation systems, including buses. Pascal's initiative was part of his broader interest in improving society through practical inventions.
