GTA

Just saw on local news and don't have link.

A first grader from Virginia stole his parents car after missing school bus. Wrecked car.

Told police he learned how to drive playing ...

Grand Theft Auto :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

Yep, I just heard it on the local news, too. The poor little kid missed the bus and decided to "borrow" Mommy and Daddy's car and drive to school. Drove a whole 10 miles, then into a ditch, out of the ditch and into a pole. Not bad for a video game driving lesson:rotfl:. Got out of the car and almost made it to school before the cops got him. They promptly arrested his parents for child endangerment.

That kid must be the best GTA player ever. It's like, impossible to drive that far in the game without hitting someone or something.

It must have been a low slung sports car ... How could he reach the pedals and see out the front windshield to drive at the same time?

At least I waited till I was in the eight grade to steal my parents car

Do you think he started having a spasm as he frantically tried to enter the "lower wanted level" cheat?

He could tie wooden blocks to his feet...
