Midlands Provincial Police spokesperson, Inspector Emmanuel Mahoko is appealing to motorist to exercise caution on the roads.
“We appeal to motorists to exercise due care and diligence and not to overload their vehicles so as to save lives of the commuting public.
“The fact that the two year old boy was run-over by a motor vehicle walking alone at 2000 hours raises the need for improvement on the level of parental care and supervision of young children.” he added.
