Ensuring child safety near roads is paramount. Families residing by the roadside should closely supervise children, preventing them from running into the street unsupervised. When leaving a vehicle, it is essential to observe surroundings and ensure doors are securely closed to prevent children from following. For drivers, especially in residential areas, maintaining a moderate speed and remaining vigilant for unexpected situations is crucial. If a child is spotted from a distance, drivers should proactively reduce speed and come to a complete stop to yield the right of way.

In a similar incident, a dashcam driver was startled when a child ran in front of their vehicle on 22/3 on QL7A, My Thanh section, Nghe An. *Video: Nguyen Ngoc*.
