Disney’s Princess Tiana car seat sparked a frenzied panic after one woman called the police on a puzzled mom.

Taylor, from Birmingham, Alabama, took to TikTok to detail the bizarre misunderstanding she had at a gas station.

The content creator explained that she had attended a casual work meeting at a coffee shop before heading to refuel her car in Hoover.

‘While I was in there, there was a lady taking pictures of my car and on the phone,’ Taylor began the clip.

‘I dropped everything and ran outside and I asked her, “What are you doing?”

Taylor then panned the camera to her vehicle to show that her back windows are slightly tinted.

‘She’s calling the police because I left my child in the car,’ Taylor said before opening the door.

It revealed an empty car fitted with a Disney kids’ seat that was printed with the popular cartoon princess from The Princess and the Frog.

‘I know like hell you are not talking about Princess Tiana,’ she continued in disbelief.

‘I burst out laughing and say, “are you talking about this child?” And her face just went pale.

‘I told her I’m not standing around for the police and you should never have been in my damn car.’

Taylor, who runs her own business as a nail technician, explained that the woman had said she thought she was doing the right thing.

‘She said: “I thought someone left their little kid in the car. Don’t be a b**ch.”‘

Taylor said that she believes the woman’s actions stemmed from apparent racism.

Taking to the caption, she wrote: ‘I know my child looks like a doll but… this?! She just saw a Black girl in a white neighborhood.’

And viewers were equally shocked by the misunderstanding as one wrote: ‘OMG I am so dead! Not princess Tiana!’

‘The way I would’ve let the police come so we could all cackle,’ another added.

‘Prime example of mind your own business,’ a third scoffed.
