SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — A man, believed to be a Utah truck driver, sat in the passenger seat of a big-rig semi-truck while recording a video of a young boy driving the vehicle on a country highway.

KUTV-TV reports the one-minute video clip features a boy who appears to be no older than 12. The video was initially posted on the Facebook page of a man whose profile page says he lives in Utah and drives for a company out of Salt Lake City.

Authorities are conducting an investigation to determine if the boy was driving in Utah. Highway patrol says criminal charges are possible.

Attempts to reach the man have been unsuccessful.

The video has been removed from Facebook.
