Social media reaction

Online users reacted strongly to the incident, which sparked a discussion about road safety and the need for increased vigilance in residential areas.

One user called it "Deeply disturbing incident". "This is 100% preventable and comes down to a single, non - negotiable rule: NEVER allow a minor or an unlicensed person to operate a motor vehicle. Car keys must be kept securely away from children. For any licensed driver, the rule is to always reverse slowly and meticulously check all mirrors and blind spots before and during the maneuver," the user wrote.

"This video is the proof that miracles do happen..but not every time...Road is not a play ground...Parents should keep an eye on children always," one user urged parents to be careful when children play on roads.

"How minor got access to car keys? His parents need to be jailed for good!" one user wrote.
