Every kid looks at a car and dreamed of the day when they could actually get behind the driverโs seat and go โvroom vroomโ with it.
Heck, even adults who are young at heart still do this sometimes when they thought no oneโs looking!
No?

Man, why no one ever relates to my experiences?
โฆUhhh, goshdarnit, I mean these fictional experiencesโฆ
Anyway, this golden opportunity apparently presented itself to a 13-year-old teenage girl when her dear friend passed a pair of car keys to her.
โฆ and she was just supposed to be picking some stuff from the van.
13YO Girl โStepped on the Wrong Pedalโ & Reversed Van into a Drain
The incident happened in Telok Blangah at around 3:24pm, specifically at the parking lot of the Block 40 HDB at Telok Blangah Rise.
15-year-old Rania told the reporter from LianHe WanBao (่ๅๆๆฅ) that the van is owned by her uncle.
Her uncle had asked her younger sister to pick up some stuff from the van, but for some reason, she gave the car keys to her 13-year-old friend.
The friend knew both Rania and her sister and she usually plays with the siblings during their free time.

The 13-year-old climbed into the driverโs seat and started the engine.
However, as she hasnโt gone through the necessary training yet, she doesnโt know how to operate the van.
Mimicking what she thought adults do, she ended up engaging the reverse gear and stepped on the accelerator.
As a result, the van suddenly shot backwards out of its parking spot, down an approximately 4- to 5-meter-high slope, crashing through metal railings, and straight into the large drain below.
The 13-year-old friend told Rania that when the van slid backwards, she fell backwards as well.

The van only stopped moving after it got stuck in the drain.
Her glasses were knocked off in the incident, but thankfully, she wasnโt hurt and was able to climb out safely.
โThey are all childrenโ
The owner of the vehicle, 40-year-old Mr Kumar, confirmed Raniaโs description of events.
Heโs not angry at the girls though.
โThey are all children, so I donโt really have anything to say. I only knew about the incident at around 3pm after receiving a call from the traffic police.โ
