If you never mentioned the infinite number of busses (i.e., if your "solution" didn't change if you had 20 busses or an infinite number of busses), than it was obviously wrong!
Since the regular pentagon tiles the dodecahedron, you should be able to flatten out the dodecahedron to start a tiling of the plane. But when you flatten the dodecahedron, you find that a gap opens up between a three-some that no regular pentagon can fill.
Details (that I didn't expect you to know): The interior angles of the regular pentagon are 108 degrees, and if you add up three of them you get 324 degrees -- but you need 360 degrees to complete the pattern, so you're 36 degrees short: that's not enough room to wedge a regular pentagon into!
