This story kinda made me chuckle. Especially this line...Finding the store closed, the youngster began a slow trip home. Emphasis on SLOW. LOL
It could have turned out badly but in the end, everyone is safe.
Mich. 4-Year-Old Does Late-Night Driving
Associated Press Monday, February 7, 2005; 9:26 AM
>>>SAND LAKE, Mich. -- A boy drove his mother's car to a video store in the middle of the night, police said -- and he's all of 4 years old.
Even though he was unable to reach the accelerator, the boy managed to put the car in gear and the idling engine provided enough power to take him slowly to the store, a quarter-mile from his home, about 1:30 a.m. Friday, Police Chief Doug Heugel said. Finding the store closed, the youngster began a slow trip home. <<<
>>>The car turned into the boy's apartment complex and struck two parked cars, then backed up and struck Osga's police car.
That's when Osga discovered the boy inside. <<<
>>>"He's 4 years old. His mom didn't even know he was up," Heugel told The Grand Rapids Press. "I don't think he even realizes what he did."<<<
