We all know that underage driving is illegal and still we see people engaging in such activities. There have been several incidents in the past where minors have been spotted driving cars and bikes. These are common sight on our roads and at times, these vehicles have even got into accidents. In some of the cases, parents are eager to teach their kids how to drive a car even when they are minors. They often record videos of their child driving the car and they post the same of various social media platforms. Here we have one such video that has gone viral on the internet. Here a minor is seen driving a Mahindra Scorpio and is attempts burnout with the SUV.
The video has been uploaded by Vicky badshah on his YouTube channel. It is actually a 4 year old video which is now circulating on the internet. In this vidoe, a child can be seen sitting on the driver seat of the previous generation Mahindra Scorpio. He is definitely a minor and is attempting to do a stunt with the SUV. Mahindra Scorpio is a rear wheel drive SUV. Taking advantage of the same, he is trying to do burnout with the SUV.

Pulling the handbrake won’t do the trick in this case as it would only lock the rear wheels where all the power is going. It is a tricky stunt but, it looks like the kid has been practicing the same for some time. He is manages to lock the brakes and accelerate and the rear wheels start spinning.
He is not able to carry out stunt for longer period of time as he keeps on loosing grip from the brake pedal. The only good thing that we seen in this video is that, the kid is not doing it on a public road. It looks like a private property with no other vehicles or people around.
After attempting burnouts, the kid even drives the Scorpio to the front and then drives the car in reverse quite aggressively. Throughout the video, he is trying to pull the stunt neatly but, he does not succeed fully. Although this is done in a closed environment, there are lot of things that could have gone wrong. The driver is still a kid and he can easily loose control over the vehicle and he could also hit some trees on the field. Recently another video had gone viral where an Indian kid was seen driving an MG Gloster SUV while his father was sitting next to him recording a video.
Mahindra recently launched the Scorpio Classic and also the new Scorpio N. Both the SUVs are receiving good response from buyers in the market. While Scorpio Classic available with a 2.2 litre mHawk diesel engine with manual gearbox only, the Scorpio N is offered with two engine options.
