Father allows his daughter, FOUR, to take the wheel of family car along busy city road

Speeding along a busy city highway skillfully negotiating traffic, this motorist would not have looked out of the ordinary to pedestrians from a distance.
But video footage of the tiny driver shows the girl put behind the wheel by her parents is, amazingly, a four-year-old child.
The youngster may be barely old enough to ride a bike or big enough to see over the steering wheel, but her parents nonetheless allowed her to drive the car along the freeway in Jinal, Shandong Province, China.
The four-year-old Chinese girl peers over the steering wheel as her father allows her to drive along the busy highway in Shandong Province, China
The two-minute video shows the girl, who appears to be called Jia Zheng, speeding calmly along the road and even overtaking other vehicles.
At one point in the footage, she mistakenly queues in the left turn lane before carefully turning the wheel to change into the neighbouring lane and continue.
After several minutes a man is heard saying: 'Jia Zheng, stop the car. Let daddy drive.'
The man then jumps out of the car and slides into the driving seat.
He is even seen removing an implement from under the seat that the youngster has used to control the accelerator and brake.
