The girl was taken to hospital for treatment.

Neighbour Esther Karschner saw the incident and said: "She was talking and, at the end, she wanted to see her mummy."

The CCTV footage was captured from Tom Carman's home, who told NBC News that he was shocked the driver did not notice the girl.

"It was amazing. I mean, I couldn't believe it. Her bouncing around in that door all the way down the street," he said. "It was bad."
