I’m just so shocked, I still can’t believe it. I kept looking at the date stamp on the video thinking it has to be an April fools joke.
Think about it, he’s a kindergartner. My daughter is in 1st grade, and I would always see the kindergarteners as I drop her off. They are all so little, not far from the transition of toddler to little kid.
We heard that and warned our daughter. She has a 5 year old who would be a perfect candidate for such an endeavor.

Proof positive of what I've been ranting about for 15 years now, These automove engineers design cars for tiny people , it's that simple. If the ergonomic parameters on cars were for normal sized people, we would not have this problem.

That is funny. Brings back some memories for me. When i was that age Mom, Dad, and I went on a yellowstone RV trip pulling an airstream. We had one of those 86 or 87 Chevy Suburbans and I'd ride up front with mom and dad. I loved it when dad would let me sit on his leg and drive. That was the BEST! On that trip i can recall looking over at my mother and she was sound asleep. Next thing i know dad is asleep as well. I"m driving! Changing lanes, using the cruise control etc. pulling a three axle airstream.
I recall my mother's face when she awoke. White as a bedsheet but she calmly woke dad up and I had to go to the back seat. I don't think dad slept the rest of the trip.
Fun times!!!
This kid did great! and yeah, lets lock the parents up.
Regards,
P.

I was driving at 5, my brother was driving at 5, and my 5 year old nephew and 3 year old niece both know how to drive. None of us were capable of doing it well and only had a vague idea of the concept that you really shouldn't be running into things, but I think any of us could have done as well as this kid!
"The people hate the lizards and the lizards rule the people." "Odd," said Arthur, "I thought you said it was a democracy." "I did," said Ford, "it is." "So," said Arthur, hoping he wasn't sounding ridiculously obtuse, "why don't the people get rid of the lizards?" "It honestly doesn't occur to them. They've all got the vote, so they all pretty much assume that the government they've voted in more or less approximates the government they want." "You mean they actually vote for the lizards." "Oh yes," said Ford with a shrug, "of course." "But," said Arthur, going for the big one again, "why?" "Because if they didn't vote for a lizard, then the wrong lizard might get in."
