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.

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.
