This 4 year old boy can drive

Four-year-old Kathiresh is just another toy-savvy toddler except the for the fact that while his friends play with fake cars, Kathiresh drives the real thing.

With four hours of training everyday, Keethresh can today drive at a speed of 70 kilometres per hour (43.5 miles per hour) and can continuously drive for 32 kilometres (approximately 20).

Watch the Reuters story here

Things that came to my mind.

This can happen only in India. Imagine the father who is stupid enough to encourage a 4 year old kid to drive on Indian roads. What you hear in a different language is the father encouraging the kid to drive.

I am really astonished by the boys feat. No doubt about that. Bloody hell, I can't drive for Christ's sake...But to think that someone is endangering the kid's life is making me very much annoyed.
