Another way to improve the accident rate is the other side of the robocar argument wherein we, as humans, do a better job of driving and of watching/educating our kids.

I understand there are rules of the road and rights-of-way but a right-of-way for a pedestrian in a crosswalk with the walking signal is not going to stop a bus from running the light and killing the pedestrian.

Not that I'm blaming the pedestrian but it surely doesn't hurt to think defensively, look both ways and judge if that bus is going to be able to stop and act accordingly.
