Woah, Woah
Let's back down a bit:
What happen with teaching the kids how to safely cross the road???
Like, look, listen, check left right couple times, then cross if safe?
They teach me this in a communist east Europe country 35 year ago....
"Woah, Woah" nothing .... Regardless of what you say about the children in this situation, the responsibility lies with the adult drivers to drive safely/defensively and look out for children who don't always use good judgement no matter what they have been taught. In the USA, if a driver hits a child, he's going to be in some major trouble as a result. Moreover, it would be very hard to deal with running into a kid on the road. I know it would be for me ... I would have a hard time living with that.
