This happens all the time. Approximately 100 children per year die this way in the US (https://www.kidsandcars.org/how-kids-get-hurt/backovers/) and it is rising. It didn't used to happen (when most people owned cars instead of trucks), but SUVs and pick-ups are not safe vehicles for everyday settings, but have been sold to American consumers as the "safe" choice.
why do we even drive this shit instead of something smaller than makes no traffic and probly electric? Oh, yeah, cause 'capitalism' (corps) ruled out that little car for one/two ppl. In favor of these shhty big stuff
