i am still trying to find where the op said the SUV was an automatic transmission

That is an ix35 I think, essentially automatic in Nigeria and there is no way that vehicle will roll in park mode except the gear is severely damaged. Moreover it is near impossible the child could have depressed the brake to engage the gear.

A mother, Mrs Olaore Yetunde, a resident of Adetoro Adelaja street, Magodo, Lagos, on May 24, 2018, put her 2-year-old son in harms way by leaving him alone in the car while she dashed into her apartment situate in the aforementioned address to pick up an item.

According to the findings of the police team that visited the scene, Mrs Olaore drove her Hyundai 4-wheel-drive SUV with registration number AAA 507 DE into her compound at Adetoro Adelaja street, Magodo. She left her son in the car and hurriedly went inside her apartment to pick up an item without properly bringing the car to a halt with the handbrake.
The result was that before she could come back to the car, it had drifted out through one side of the gate that was left open after she drove inside. The car further drifted across the road and slide off the main road into a 20 feet gully with the bottom of the car facing up after it somersaulted severally.

The infant who sustained injuries in the head and the arm was rescued by the Command Rapid Response Squad patrol team stationed near the scene of incident.

The child was instantly rushed to an undisclosed hospital for a first aid from where he was referred to another hospital in Ikeja for a comprehensive treatment.

The Commissioner of Police, Lagos State, CP Imohimi Edgal advised parents to draw lessons from the unfortunate incident and never leave their little children all by themselves in their cars. The CP reiterated that negligent parents would be prosecuted in accordance with relevant laws.

SP Chike Oti
Police Public Relations Officer,
Lagos State Police Command.

....

.....who did not go to a proper driving school because they have money to buy a fancy car and now see themselves as the king of the world and would not like to listen to any instructions from any driving instructor who does not have as much money as they have.

You are right. It could happen to anyone ... like that.

I find it irrevocably funny that people would rather blame everything else but the real culprit. Some have alluded to the fact that it must be the handi-work of people from her village that caused the vehicle to careen down the embankment and not the woman's own negligent behavior. The woman in this story was definitely negligent and should have known better not to leave her toddler alone in a car with the engine idling [running] whether or not it was in "park." Anyone with a child knows or ought to know that children are very curious ["monkey see, monkey do"] and if left alone in a car that's running, is surely an accident waiting to happen. But assuming that the child was not curious enough to act out what she saw his mom do, it's not implausible that while the car was idling, the gear system got disengaged from a "park" position to "drive." There have been several instances of such and there have been recalls of some of these vehicles. So folks, let's not just jump into conclusions or make assumptions about issues that upon closer examination would be totally unrelated.

please deal with the facts you have and stop forming an automobile guru here....for all i care, that could be a santa fe, kona or a tucson and they also come in stick shifts....the op's write up did not state all the facts, so you have to consider everything and not just jump into conclusions because it fits your ideology. Please think!!!! Even if it was an automatic shift, op did not state that she put it in "park", so you can't possibly just jump that it was in "p"

What does it take to 'turn a car engine off'?..even if she is too weak to carry the baby along?
A lot of children have died, having been left it the car by their parent, to do one thing or the other.

If you are not capable of good parenting, please dont bear children!

Let her try this in America or Europe, she will never be allowed to see that child again, when she comes back from Prison.
