In the video, we witness a school bus coming to a stop, and two children disembarking. Without hesitation, they sprint across the road, completely disregarding their surroundings.

A fast-moving truck suddenly appears on the scene. While one child stops in their tracks, the other continues running and reaches the middle of the road, directly in the path of the oncoming truck.
