Driver caught speeding - after his bedtime
Ankara - A Turkish police officer who stopped a car speeding in the streets at night was bewildered to discover an 11-year-old boy in the driver's seat, with his five-year-old brother at his side, press reports said on Tuesday.
The boy told the police that he had taken the opportunity while his father was sleeping to treat his brother to a ride in downtown Konya, central Turkey.
The officer was further astonished when the boy said he had been driving for the past three months and that it was his father who had taught him, the Milliyet daily reported.
The father was fined 206 Turkish lira for allowing a minor to drive a motor vehicle, the report said. - Sapa-AFP
