CBS reports that he was oblivious to what had happened but was soon alerted by those in the car behind who picked up the child.

He explained: “I was waiting at the red light. After passing the intersection, a car chased after me and kept sounding the horn. “The driver told me a kid fell out of my van. I looked back, parked my van aside, and went back to search for my grandson.” Apparently the little boy made his way to the back of the car which had been recently rear-ended, causing the lid of the boot to become loose.
