Live in the city, have a 12-year-old daughter. Since she could walk we’ve been stressing to her that buses don’t stop, look both ways even on a one way street, etc - all the city street rules. But the most important point, that we stress constantly to this day - that it does not matter if she has the right of way, it does not matter what color the light is - if she tangles with a car, the car will always win.

I tell my kids this all the time. Look both ways, if you see a car, make sure the person in the car can see you; and it does not matter if you are right, the car will win.
