To find the rate at which the bus is traveling, we need to calculate the speed, which is the distance traveled divided by the time spent driving.
For the first point, the time spent driving is 2 hours and the distance traveled is 120 miles. So, the speed is 120 miles / 2 hours = 60 mph.
Therefore, the correct answer is 60 mph.
