A toddler who was crossing the road alone was knocked over and left injured when the driver simply rode away.
But what was more shocking in the CCTV of the accident, was the adults who turned a blind eye to the hurt child.
It was only when he was spotted by a seven-year-old boy that he was rescued and dragged out of danger.
The only people who seemed interested in helping the tot were other children.
In the footage from Yulin, Guangxi, in China, the boy can be seen as he tries to walk across the road.
He is struck by a tuk-tuk style taxi, with the female driver glancing down at the boy before driving away.
A man who appears to see the crash and the injured child turns presses the remote on his car keys, locks his car and strolls across without looking back.
A second adult, whose child appears to be watching the accident, runs over and it looks as though she may help.
But she grabs her own child by the hand, pulling him away and ignoring the injured toddler and his young rescuer.
According to the Shanghaiist the injured boy was taken to the hospital.
He suffered a fractured foot and some minor injuries in the accident and the tricycle driver turned herself in to police after the footage was shared on social media.
The seven-year-old spoke to reporters and said: “I wasn’t afraid.
"The teachers taught us that if we see someone in trouble, then we should help them."
