Authorities in Vereeniging, Gauteng are investigating a video that is circulating on social media where an 8-year-old boy was recorded driving a land rover unaccompanied by an adult. The boy was stopped by a concerned senior resident who queried him if the parents were aware that he was in the streets
 
driving.

The boy replied that his parents were the ones who gave him the car and were fully aware that he was rocking the streets in a Land Rover. The elder then asked to follow him in his car so that he can speak with the parents of the young boy about the incident. The child also tells the group of people that “my father gave me the car”. The child then drives off and the clip ends as the elder was getting into his car to follow him.

Road Traffic Management Corporation has issued a statement saying that this is unacceptable and they will get to the bottom of that matter and action will be taken against those who are found breaking the law as it is illegal to drive under the age of 18
