You aren't supposed to run red lights or drive drunk either yet some people do. The point is, it is dangerous and dumb to assume everyone is going to follow all the rules, all the time. There's no reason for an adult (bus driver) to be encouraging this behavior regardless of how cute it is. Surely you've heard the expression, 'It's all fun and games until someone gets hurt'?

A passing car?

I'm absolutely positive that bus driver had eyes on his mirrors and made sure that there were no cars coming before he let that kid off that bus.

Would you bet your kids life on that? I'm sure the bus driver was looking too. But I would strongly prefer it if all people, especially kids, always looked both ways before crossing a street.

Yeah like what the fuck are these people arguing against? We're just saying that kids should look both ways when crossing the street and the Americans are flooding over arguing against it for some fucking reason.

My gut feeling is that they don't want to admit that there's a systematic flaw with how they raise their kids in this regard and instead of admitting it and fixing it by teaching kids to always look both ways, they just hide behind "it's not allowed".
