I'm reading the comments about this video, and I think people are missing the point.
It's not about the Telsa running into the kid. It's about the Tesla completely ignoring the FLASHING FUCKING STOP SIGN at the side of the bus, which resulted in it hitting the kid dummy.
This could have been a pedestrian crossing, railroad stop, intersection, etc.
These vehicles aren't "smart" and should not be allowed on the road. Any idiot can have greater awareness than a Tesla.
No 'smart' device is smart.
you wouldn't say that to his face, would you? 🥺
With a hammer to the camera

Yeah, it might kill the kid, it might not.
Im still gonna stick to my ford F50000 Fleshreaper (BLOOD FOR THE CAR GOD!™) driven by a good old fashioned human to get the job done.
Besides, it avoids the whole mess of theological issues about who gets moloch's love.
Oh, now I get it. Didn‘t know it’s not allowed to pass the bus even when it’s on the other side of the street. In our country we teach the kids to not run across the street when they get out of the bus.
Kids will do stupid things sometimes, no avoiding that. In Germany you can pass a stopped bus on the other side of the road, but if it has its hazards on, you can't go faster than walking speed.
You might be allowed to pass a stopped school bus if the road has a concrete divider, but if there isn't one of those you are't allowed to pass it in either direction. Kids are stupid and will gladly run into traffic if they see their parent on the other side of it. Also, there isn't really a point in stopping traffic in only one direction, with cars passing on the other side you can't cross the road anyway.
