If it is pitch black and you are trying to navigate through an obstacle course, shouldn't the person with night vision goggles be leading, not following?
Maybe it's not a mistake, maybe some people would do it the way they did in the film. I sure wouldn't.

And why did they run off after they fell down the stairs? Or, not respond verbally that they were ok? It should have been rather easy to reunite - just don't move, announce your position, and don't run off!

Yes. Completely stupid and illogical. It was an excuse for a really good night vision scene.
As was locking all of those civilians in a huge, unfamiliar room during the initial outbreak. That was a excuse for a really good "trapped in a roomful of infected" scene.
The entire film was a series of really well-done horror set pieces that were arrived at through eye-rollingly stupid methods.
Peace.
That had

occurred to us, Dude.

Yeah I wouldn't want to be pointing the gun at the kids. I wouldn't want something to happen. I might accidentally fire. Plus the objective is to protect the kids AND get them to the football stadium as quickly as possible. So it would be better for the person with the gun with night vision to lead, take out any hostiles in the way and check the any obstacles that could harm us.
But it is a horror movie and everyone is stupid in those

Mackintosh Muggleton
as 'Andy' somehow got separated from
Rose Byrne
&
Imogen Poots
at the bottom of the escalator. Why would he wander off in the total blackness? Ridiculous plot, writing, directing. Why didn't someone on the set point this out?

The film wanted the viewers to see through the goggles and to be able to see the kids. If the kids followed behind, they would have never fell, she would have never died and Andy would have never been infected.

Its been mentioned on this board a few times near when the film was first released. In fact there were whole lengthy threads about the plot inconsistencies and lack of logic/sense this film has.
