Viral Video Shows a Small Child Driving a Car and Crashing into a Wall

Share:

A viral social media video shows a car displayed in a mall crashed into a store wall. Apparently, the car was driven by a child! 

In the viral video, it was mentioned that the car crashed into the mall’s wall. The car, which was on display inside the mall, hit the wall because a small child was playing in the driver’s seat.

It seems the child accidentally started the car engine and made it run. Fortunately, there were no victims because the car was automatically stopped after hitting the store’s wall.

The mother was seen approaching the car and pulling out the child wearing a yellow shirt.

The video on X shows that the child was not injured. He then ran away from the car. 

After the video went viral, many netizens wondered why the child could start the car. This is because most display cars cannot be started or have fuel.

However, one netizen mentioned that the car was a Chery Omoda E5. This is an electric car, so the start-stop button can practically be used if the key is in the cabin. In other words, even a child can drive the car. 

Currently, there is no further news regarding the damage caused to the car and whether the child’s parents should buy a new car.

Bringing children to visit a mall or shopping center is a common activity. In this case, children and parents can learn to be more careful.
