This is the moment a little girl walks behind a reversing car – but luckily she moves out of the way just in time.
Yet much to the shock of the adult with the child, the motorist continues to drive back and so the woman launches an angry rant at the driver.
Dashcam footage shows the woman, with one child in the trolley seat as well as the young girl walking beside her, outside an Aldi supermarket in Nottingham.
The group begins to cross the road but quickly stop and retreat when they notice a car reversing towards them.
Yet much to the woman’s astonishment, the car continues to move.

The woman can then be seen launching an angry tirade at the driver and moves towards the motorists window in a fury to make her point.
The clip has divided opinion online about who’s to blame, with people split between thinking the mother is at fault for not having proper control over her daughter and those who say the driver should have taken more care.
Ben Hemstock, from Gedling, Nottinghamshire, posted the video on Facebook.
Sean Costa responded: ‘What right mother would let their kids run around in a car park anyway, is she thick or what?’

Others said how irritating it was when those crossing didn’t pay attention when a car had already started manoeuvring.
One added: ‘The woman was looking at the car with its reversing lights clearly on but still stepped out, she should have waited until she could be sure what the driver intended.’
Another one wrote: ‘So she walks out of the store, passes the zebra crossing and then decides to cross the road when the car is reversing, and lets her kid run across the road without even knowing if the other side is clear.
‘Then has a go at the driver for their lack of observations and brains? Both as bad as each other but the woman crossing endangered her child by her failings.’

However, others defended the woman and noted that the driver should have been paying more attention.
Ben himself wrote: ‘To be fair…I wouldn’t have used the crossing either. She was getting back to the parent and child spaces. No other way to get to them.’
One added: ‘Another example of people not using their mirrors.’
Yet some believe they were both to blame, with one social media user saying: ‘Both idiots. Don’t walk behind a reversing car, and don’t reverse without looking where you’re going.’
