A shocking CCTV footage of a four-wheel-drive vehicle ploughing through a family of six and leaving a lone survivor has gone viral.

In the video, a couple could be seen holding the hands of their children and strolling along a road, when a vehicle suddenly crashed into them from the back.

The mother and three of her kids were sent flying, while the father was caught in the wheels and dragged for a distance until the vehicle came to a stop, reported The Coverage.

The lone survivor, a boy, was thrown to the ground but pulled himself up.

He could be seen crying as he assessed the scene of carnage before him.

In a later video, a man, allegedly the driver of the four-wheel-drive could be seen kneeling down in front of a crowd, a look of regret on his face.

The camera then shifted towards the bloodied father who was trapped under the four-wheel-drive.

Some netizens have commented on the videos, saying that the driver could have been under the influence of alcohol.

Others said that he has expressed regret and should be forgiven.
