See, children aren't useless afterall

I'm loving this story about a four year old boy who took his moms car in the middle of the night to the video store and drove it back home.

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.

Weaving and with its headlights off, the car got the attention of police Sgt. Jay Osga, who initially thought he was following a driverless car that had taken off after being left running at a gas pump.
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.

The car was going so slow that the cop probably thought it was an old person driving it. A dead give away that an old person is driving a car, is when you see their idiot blinker on for 30 miles, and the guys going 7 in a 60 zone. Blue hair bandits.
"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."

Having a four year old drive could sure come in handy. Grab me some smokes and a bottle of whiskey when you're out Timmy, daddy needs some "me" time.
