Still Waters Posted August 24, 2019 Author #5 Share Posted August 24, 2019 Good grief, he's done it again. Quote German boy, eight, crashes parents' car in second high-speed joyride of the week The child hit speeds of 110mph before crashing - days after his mother gave him a "stern talking-to" for pulling a similar stunt. https://news.sky.com/story/german-boy-eight-crashes-parents-car-in-second-high-speed-joyride-of-the-week-11792404 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freetoroam Posted August 24, 2019 #7 Share Posted August 24, 2019 Quote His mother said on Wednesday she had given her son a "stern talking-to" after waking up to find him and the car gone. The mother is purely at fault and a complete idiot!! Hide the blooming keys!!! And then he does it again!! The mother is the one who needs to go for a psychological counselling along with her son. Thankfully no one was hurt, but if anyone had been, it would be the mothers fault. Something tells me he will be out on the public roads again on his own before he has a licence. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I didn't want the middle knucklehead to drive anything, including his dirt bike. He couldn't drive anything. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And just like with my son's dirt bike, those bloody cart wheels would be stashed at a friend's house. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fred_mc Posted August 25, 2019 #13 Share Posted August 25, 2019 Wow, some people are born criminals I think, won't be long until he starts taking drugs, steals cars, and joins a gang I'm afraid :-( . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
