Or because kids are very familiar with busses and adults are not.
- bowsamic 2y agoInterestingly I got it instantly but I’ve used busses far more in my adult life than as a child
- dkdbejwi383 2y agoWhy would kids be more familiar with busses than adults?
- xattt 2y ago> Why are [large vehicles] so exciting to a kid? Perhaps it is obvious: they are loud, big, fast, complex, powerful. There is the element of danger. Adaptively, there must be a survival advantage for children who are curious about loud, large, fast beings and objects. https://www.earthisland.org/journal/index.php/articles/entry/megafauna-mecha-fauna-machines-nature/ https://www.earthisland.org/journal/index.php/articles/entry...
- dkdbejwi383 2y agoI don’t see the correlation, sorry! I’d expect an adult to be more familiar with a bus by virtue of having taken the bus more often than a child. Whether or not that’s exciting or just a mundane commute shouldn’t affect familiarity.
