Miraculously the kid and his buddy are not dead....although the kid may wish he was. Brand new 200,000 dollar car with like 100 miles. He was tearing through a neighborhood at 90mph and hit a tree and the a brick wall.

don't worry, when I have kids, I'll be smacking their hands if they'll be touching my scale models collection :twisted: :mrgreen:

See, just solve the problem by encouraing your kid to enjoy the car - then as soon as they can reach the pedals and see over the steering wheel teach them to drive it - take them to the race track so that the thought of a "joy ride" is a joke ;)

That's a serious crash!! :ohmy:

Electronics doesn't work all the time! If you really can't drive, you're gonna crash ! :-P

Or just keep the keys in your pocket. What, will they jump start it? If you let your kid drive the car before any car driving classes, he will get very sure of him, that he can drive everything......and that leads to this.

All at their time.....computer at the age of 10, internet at the age of 16, mobile phone at 17, license at 18, car at 19 :laugh:

Wrong - letting and teaching your kid to drive "before any driving classes" is the best thing you can do... please explain to me ONE positive result form "a general license driving class"?

You are not taught anything meaningful - If I want my daughter to "learn" anything about driving, it will from Skip Barber or Bob Bondurant or some other winning championship accredited race car driving school - not some barely employed bum with a clip board and a 1.1l diesel econobox during 8 45 minute sessions once every 3 weeks on a Tuesday (not including vacations , bank and state holidays)

The problem with that system is that for 8 years they have uncontrolled fantasy freedom which cannot be undone by a few classes - which leads to the pictures in this topic.

I was saying that from the kids point of view, meaning, I was one of those kids tought to drive since 14 years old, when I had 16 years, I had such good self confidence that I can drive, and my dad was so pleased with me , that he let me drive alone one of our cars, on a country road, while he was in front with the other car, at one point, he braked , because a carriage was in front of him, I assumed he would go again, he didint, i braked late, and hit his car, ruining our 2 cars. And because of that confidence in my great driving skills, I failed the first test for driving license on the truck...which I had to take again......So, I dont think driving while your in dipers is the best thing you can teach your kids......all at their time, its never to late, but often its to early for some things ;)

edit: the answer went a bit wrong there......I have nothing against good driving schools and anything you said, only at father teaching son how to drive, before he can even understand what driving is ;)

If he was ok after the crash his dad kill him
LOL :D

I remember my dad's face when he found out I popped the tire on his truck "4x4ing" in the irrigation ditch when I was 16.

I can't even imagine the conversation that takes place after this one. Kid is probably so g'damned spoiled he'll whine it off.

Now we know why they dont put damage in GT games, if you touch a wall in a Ferrari it turns into a fireball. Given this accident was a bit more than a "touch" ;)
