If the cars driving behind had not seen the small child, it could have led to a serious accident. Fortunately, a vehicle following the motorcycle quickly stopped, and the child was unharmed.


The motorcycle rider only stopped after other drivers informed him that the child had fallen off.



As the video spread, criticism poured in toward the motorcycle rider. Chinese netizens pointed out, "How could he not even realize the child fell off?", "It could have been a disaster if the cars behind hadn’t stopped," "He put a young child on a motorcycle without even a helmet," and "That father should be thankful to the driver who was following behind."
