I own a Tesla. It sounds like the occupant was not letting it self-drive. In self-drive mode, They have a general habit of driving at the same speed as the flow of traffic. And, they definitely yield to school buses and emergency vehicles EVERY time. This is the giveaway to what you described.

A late model Tesla on the HD4 platform and the latest software will drive better than you can. It's looking in ALL directions ALL the time, and its reaction time is superhuman.

Tragic no one else here realizes this article is total BS.

My car is not a Tesla and not “self driving”. I set the cruise control to any speed I want. Encounter lots of slow cars and seldom are they Teslas.

And no way a Tesla doesn’t know about school busses.
