An 11-year-old boy was forced to take the wheel after his father lost consciousness while driving in Hong Kong, with the car only coming to a halt after it collided with another vehicle and a railing.
Police said the boy’s father, 47, fainted while driving westbound along Shing Sai Road and turning into Sands Street in Kennedy Town at about 6.20pm on Monday.
The boy, who was seated next to him, grabbed the wheel in an attempt to stop the car.
But the vehicle collided with another car before crashing into roadside railings near Rock Hill Road, where it finally came to a halt.
Both the boy and the 66-year-old driver of the other car were unhurt.
The father was rushed to nearby Queen Mary Hospital for treatment.
Police are investigating the incident.
