A little girl was almost run over by a speeding SUV when she was trying to cross the street on her scooter in California, USA. California SUV little girl video has shaken the internet and therefore it has gone viral. Interestingly, the California SUV little girl viral video has also started a debate among Americans that whether the car was at fault or not. California SUV little girl accident viral video was reportedly filmed on September 14 when a person named Jison Hong was at a traffic stop and the camera on her dashboard caught a girl on a scooter nearly being struck by a dark SUV that did not stop for the girl and her family as they crossed the street.
In the California San Mateo SUV little girl video, it can be seen two children on their scooters fully equipped with protection are trying to cross the street when the street light was alleged to 'Yellow'. It is clearly visible in the San Mateo video that two children on a scooter were crossing the road with a man in blue t-shirt who was dragging a cart with himself. Suddenly, a speeding SUV crosses the road almost hitting the girl. In fact, the girl almost came under the speeding SUV as she fell down from the horrific impact of it.

"Officers said the teenage driver wasn't reckless, but inexperienced. He wasn't cited because a vehicle-code infraction wasn't committed in an officer's presence, authorities said," added another user.
