Russian Police Look into Speeding Schoolgirl Video

A Russian motorist has been branded 'the world's worst father' after he forced his eight-year-old daughter to drive his car at more than 60mph on an icy road. Dmitry Mihulchik, 28, filmed his daughter Karina taking the family Audi for a spin and uploaded the shocking footage online. As the speed increases, with the father occasionally clutching the wheel to control the car, he tells his daughter: 'Push it to at least 100kph.' The mom was sitting on the backs seat. Neither the eight-year-old driver nor her parents were wearing seatbelts during the drive lasting more than six minutes. The couple from St Petersburg are facing a police probe over the hair raising drive. 'An investigation has been opened,' said a spokesman. It is unclear what punishment the parents might face, but some have suggested it could be a fine of 2,500 roubles ($80) for allowing their daughter to drive without a licence.
