Why? is it because it is a fore gone conclusion that all buses people step out in front of do not have brakes?
What happened to teaching a man to fish?
You do understand that to teach a man to fish you actually have to teach a man to fish, right? You don't just give a man a fishing pole and stand back while he casts and pierces his own ear in the process; there actually needs to be some instruction, some help. In the case of a man walking in front of a bus, the way you teach him not to walk in front of a bus is by stopping him from dying in a bus crash and imparting the knowledge that the action he just took leads to bus-death.
You don't let him get hit and then harangue the meat paste that used to be him about not stepping in front of buses.
Agreed.
A person needs intention and understanding before performance. Just given a fishing rod, like You said, the person will act with a rod as they would with any stick. He/She needs a goal: obtain fish. They need the how: bait fish with the required tools. They need the why: fish are eaten as sustenance.
Now they have some outline as vague as it may seem, they can fish by trial.
