Woman Records Young Boy Driving Car, Netizens Outraged

Last year, an incident of a young couple allowing their son to drive their BMW in Katong went viral, sparking debate among netizens.

Recently, something similar occurred when a woman recorded a young boy behind the steering wheel of a moving car.

The footage has gone viral on social media, with many condemning her actions.

He had both hands on the steering wheel, with no assistance from the adult.

Netizens criticise caretakers for actions

The incriminating footage of the incident quickly gained the attention of netizens on Facebook, with over 180 shares.

Safety should not be compromised for entertainment

Even so, allowing the child to control the steering wheel does carry with it a certain level of danger.

Thankfully, their actions did not lead to any serious accidents — or even worse, fatalities.

Hopefully, this will remind parents and caretakers to think twice before engaging in similarly dangerous acts.
