In most corridors, I think the higher capacity of LRV works against it as a mode choice, because you're forcing people to wait longer for the privilege of riding a rail vehicle. They'd generally prefer a bus every five minutes to an LRV every 15.
If you have the ridership where bus capacity becomes a problem, it's time to get off the street entirely, into a subway.
