Two stories came in on the newsfeeds, both from Australia.
In this first one, an 11-year old boy died as he was driving his sister and himself to meet the school bus and they hit a tree! You have to remember the size of Australia in relation to the UK, and when the story says he was driving “on a rural property” (i.e. a farm) you probably have thinking in terms of tens or even hundreds of acres, as opposed to the square metres it would probably be over here. But that doesn’t disguise the fact that 11-year olds and cars don’t mix for all kinds of reasons, farm or not.
And in this second story, a man was arrested whilst driving a car which had no steering wheel. He was using Mole Grips to turn the steering column. The car was being driven dangerously and had two flat tyres. It was unregistered, uninsured, and subject to an existing defect notice. The car had apparently just been involved in a hit-and-run, and the driver was found to be disqualified and he then failed the police drug test. I don’t think there was anything left for him to get wrong.
