This is the shocking moment FIVE young schoolboys crammed onto a single moped to ride home after class.

The reckless motorcycle riding was captured when lessons finished in Phnom Penh, Cambodia.

One youngster sitting at the front of the scooter steered and controlled the throttle while four friends piled on behind him.

Onlooker Yim Siphon, who recorded the group of boys while he was leaving his office, is heard in the video warning them to ''ride safely''.

None of them were wearing helmets or protective equipment and they wobbled dangerously as they pulled away on January 10.

Yim said he just wanted the kids to ride safely but they had ''no awareness of road rules''.

He said: "After I met those five children carelessly riding a motorcycle together, I went to the school and spoke with the teachers and told them to teach the boys about road safety.

"I don't want people to think anything bad about the children, but they need to learn and respect the traffic laws, too."
