**Canadian police say they have begun investigating a video showing a seven-year-old boy driving a car along a dirt road while his father films him.**The video, which Canadian media told Quebec police about, was posted on the video-sharing site https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=(http://www.montrealgazette.com) said the footage was shot on a rainy day with the Honda CRV’s windscreen wipers going.
Police had opened an investigation after seeing the footage, CBC quoted Sgt Chantal Mackels as saying.
Sgt Mackels said she was “very hopeful” that police would determine the family’s identity, although police were not presuming that the man and woman were the children’s parents, the Montreal Gazette reported.
A charge of dangerous driving was unlikely as the driver was underage and not legally responsible. Other charges could be applied to the adults in the car, she said.
