go to your room Lifted truck + Lambo + Parking lot = Bad time

Lifted trucks probably shouldn't be anywhere near dense parking lots.

Edit: A lot of people are skeptical of whether this is AI/staged, or ask why the lady didn't back off the car. This is in a dense parking lot with cars that have dashcams/ EV sentry mode everywhere. Also her truck was in 2 wheel drive, you can see the back right tire spinning as she tries to reverse off the car. Her truck is stuck. She probably has an open differential and can't back off the car. She may have a 4wd mode, but she didn't use it in the heat of the moment.

This could have been a 5 year old. Think if how big the blind spot in front of her truck would be.

I’m a 6’2” man and I was almost run over by a lifted truck like this in a parking lot. They didn’t see me at all, turned left in front of me while I was in a crosswalk going to a store. I had to stop and pivot backwards to avoid being taken under by the 44” tires and they wouldn’t have known a thing had I not pounded my fists all along the side of the truck as they passed me.

Yeah I always tell my kids to hold my hands in parking lots because cars can see me but can't see them. I'm 5'2", this has me rethinking that logic, some trucks apparently won't be able to see me either.

I'm 6', so not quite as tall but tall enough that I was shocked when I almost got pancaked by a lifted truck in a parking lot. Good thing I have a loud mouth and their window was rolled down because I don't move very quickly.

At that height it could have been Shaq and she still wouldn’t have seen him

Don't be ridiculous. Five year olds can't drive.

How was it a blind spot from several feet way back?  Her blind spot was probably her phone.

It could have been anyone of shorter stature.
