If I’m the lambo dealer and little dude shows with $3 and a trade in I think I have to make the deal.

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.

Oh, yeah, definitely file charges against the parents.

yep - was thinking the same thing

I can’t imagine. That’s a handful. That kid’s one to watch. Mad genius and strength of will.

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.

I can't imagine a 5 y/o driving a vehicle like that and knowing somewhat,what to do. That is pretty scary.

Is it me or, is that kid on the big-side for a 5 year old?

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!

Follow up to the story:

A fellow with a Lambo came to the kids house and took him for a ride. The little guy was real quiet, shy and yes, he's pretty large, not tall though.

People in his family are heavy-set. 5 y/o kid looks as if he weighs at least 100 lbs.

5-year-old caught driving on Utah freeway takes safer Lamborghini ride a day later

Like that story a Few years ago an 8 year took his 5 year old sister and swiped the car to go to McDonald’s drive through. The McD employees called cops. Said he learned to drive on youtube

Cop probably saved the kids life. All it takes is him to over correct, lose control, drift off roadway, etc.

By all means, let’s reward the kid.

That is hardcore.
