    At about the 2-3 second mark the trucker should have been getting on the brakes and getting ready for evasive action.

    I'm not sure about kid but truck driver will remember to slow down in such road situation next time.
    I have had it in my life. Toughest moment to get out and look where is kid. Then you see kid is OK and running away. Whoah.
