Being able to drive at 6, now that's an achievement!

awesome, for the lad. Pity he binned it though, imagine rocking up at school in a car when you're 6? you'd be a legend!

Yet another reason not to get an automatic.

"The resort operator said the 48-year-old man was suspended for about seven minutes"

i bet he thought to himself, "Jeez, that was embarrassing, i hope no one seen me during those 420 seconds.."

I was 8 years old when my Uncle let me drive his Rover Sterling (auto) up and down my parents drive.

Good lad. Keen to learn and wotnot. I had one of those Tauruses for a bid. Not exciting but felt like a good, solidly built car. Especially compares to the GM fayre I'd been given up until that point.

Why did he drive to school.

I would have hit the local toy shop.

Police in Virginia said the boy, who was not named, took the keys to the car after he missed the school bus.

His parents should be shot. He's six for fk sake: When were they going to name him?

[NitroNick]

He should team up with this kid and do drive-bys. http://uk.news.yahoo.com/5/20090107/twl-boy-of-fou...
