Taking to the comment section, people shared their take. "Mother and father are to be blamed for this. Also, if he is from a rich family, he will probably be spared," a user said. "It's all the parents' fault in this. The parents should be punished for this. The car should be seized and a heavy fine should be imposed. All losses should be compensated only then they will understand," wrote a second person. "I hope some strict punishment will be given to the child and the parents," wrote another.
"This is how spoiled children of rich parents are. Sometimes it feels good that whatever we achieved in life was done by our hard work. If our parents had money, perhaps we too would have been spoiled," added a fourth person. "When a vehicle is in the hands of a driver who is not in the right mental state, then the woman seen in the video and the people who came later should have kept a distance from him because while trying to escape, the driver and the people would have lost their lives. Could have injured or even killed someone!" added another.
