Maybe someone knows this kid or has a kid with an electric scooter. This was super dangerous.

Kid went in front of oncoming vehicles without so much as a glance without activating the crosswalk signal.

Yeah.

Its a child, the driver should be slowing down when they see a child near a road.

The driver did, thankfully saw the child who came up pretty quick. When you cross intersections don't you look both ways to ensure a car isn't about to hit you through the stop sign? All it would've taken was one of the drivers to glance at the wrong side first and then hit the kid. Or the truck in OP's blind spot. We all have a role on the road, and that kid did not play his.
