Driven to ...

Now this is resourceful ... a 6-year-old in Denver (US), feeling a bit more than peckish, took his grandmother's car keys, put his child seat in the driver's seat, climbed in, and tried to drive himself to a restaurant. However, it was not plain sailing - he couldn't get the vehicle out of reverse and 23 metres later he backed into an electricity transformer, taking out the power to surrounding homes. Luckily no-one was hurt and, being a responsible, if not competent, driver, he told his grandmother what had happened. (Seems like a good reason to keep some kind of nutritious snack on hand!)
