Driving requires a certain level of maturity, judgement, and responsibility. That is why each country has a minimum age, which helps ensure that drivers have reached a stage where they can safely operate a vehicle. Sadly, however, there are times when kids are spotted riding bikes or cars, and one such incident has sparked outrage among people. It shows a little girl riding a scooter with her dad proudly on a pillion.
“Shocking visuals from Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar,” reads the caption posted along with the video. The clip captures the girl in school uniform driving the scooter with her dad behind her. They are seen without helmets.

Kids taking cars for joyrides:
There have been instances all across the world where kids were caught taking their parents' or guardians' cars for joyrides. In some of the cases, the consequences turned out to be harrowing, with the kids crashing the cars and killing others. Just like this incident in Delhi, where a teen rammed his uncle’s Maruti Ciaz into an autorickshaw while riding at high speed, killing the driver.
In a recent incident, a 17-year-old allegedly rammed his speeding Porsche into a motorcycle, killing two software engineers.
