In my experience in California, always and yes.

Maybe we should not only replace the unsafe humans with robots, but also have the robots drive in a safe manner near schools rather than replicating the unsafe human behavior?

  • One argument for the robots is that they can be programmed to drive safer, while humans cant.

    But that depends on reliability, especially in unforseen (and untrained-upon) circumstances. We'll have to see how they do, but they have been doing better than expected
