Oh.... I like this idea. How many time in his life has Harry extended
his right hand (his wand hand) and the Knight Bus never suddenly
appeared? Loads of times... hundreds of times a day.

Harry had a need, a desparate urgent need, it was that need coupled
with accidently extending his wand hand that called the Knight Bus;
emergency transportation for stranded wizards. His desparate need
allowed him to call a source of aid that he didn't even know existed.
Magic is sooo cool.

Brilliant thinking, Robert (Sir Robert of Old, good knight of the
round table. So, Sir Robert of Old, would you last name perhaps be
Young? (HUMOR)).

Just a thought.
