News Report One

A police officer in the U.S stopped a large SUV car that was going very slowly and drifting across lanes on a highway.

He expected to find a driver who was either very drunk or having a medical emergency.

Instead, the officer discovered a five year old boy sat on the edge of the driver's seat.

His feet could barely reach the brake, and his head was only just high enough to see out of the windows.

The child had taken the keys to the family car while his teenage sister was napping.
