This works fine when there's a stop on each side of the road. Otherwise I've made use of the bus_direction=(N|S|E|W) tag (from http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Buses ) on the node to indicate in which direction the stop is for, which I believe should work fairly well. Then the renderers or alike can use that to move them off a bit to the side when displayed if wanted.
