A picture to terrify every parent: Chinese father drags baby boy through traffic in a crate attached to his moped
with an old piece of rope

Baby seats are a little different in China. When this father wanted to take his son for spin on his moped, he simple wedged him in
an old drinks crate and towed him along the road on a piece of rope.
The child - clearly too young to ride pillion - stares out from the box trustingly little knowing the danger he's in from other traffic as a bus
thunders past.
The scene, shot by a passer by in Xi'an, Shaanxi province, western China, has provoked wails of protest since it was flashed around local
social networking websites.
Police are said to be looking for the moped rider.
