How could a mother leave her baby in her car when she went shopping? This is one of two cases of outrageous neglect that we’ve uncovered on FTV. In another incident, an adult was driving a car, while two little girls were sitting with their bodies halfway out the sunroof. A witnessed filmed this, posted the footage online and it caused an uproar. The girls could have easily fallen out of the car if it braked suddenly or wobbled. Let’s find out more.

A black sedan passes through an intersection, attracting attention. It wasn’t the car itself that was unusual, but rather the fact that two little girls were sitting on the roof, half of their bodies sticking out of the car. Witnesses said the two girls were wearing goggles and were screaming all the way, seemingly quite excited.

This was seen at several intersections in a row. This outrageous scene occurred on Thursday night when the black sedan exited an interchange and drove along Section 6 of Jiaoxi Road in Yilan. The two girls sat on the roof of the car as it drove around while they enjoyed the breeze.

Appalled
If a car kept wobbling when in motion, and they accidentally fell off, the consequences would be unimaginable.

The police issued tickets in accordance with regulations to maintain traffic order and ensure the safety of people on the road.

There was also another instance of adult negligence, this time in Taitung. A baby was seen lying in the passenger seat of an SUV, crying hysterically. A passerby noticed and immediately sought help. It turned out the baby’s mother had gone shopping in a mall.

Guanshan police station
Leaving infants and young children alone in a car, even for a short shopping trip, can endanger their lives due to factors such as high temperatures and a lack of oxygen inside the vehicle.

Chen Shu-lan
Taitung County Social Affairs Department
According to Article 51 of the Child and Juvenile Welfare and Rights Protection Act, we cannot leave children under the age of six alone or entrust them to care from unsuitable individuals.

Police are reminding the public never to leave children under six years old alone in a car, as this is against the law. Don’t wait until a tragedy occurs and then regret it later.
