12-year-old takes solo joyride across Australia
How’s this for breaking the law!
This child thought he’d go for a joyride across Australia using the family car.
He’s only 12 years old and got it right to drive 1300 km across a remote part of Australia before police caught him.
It may sound like fake news, but it’s really not.
It is not yet known what the reason was for the boy’s adventure, but everyone on social media is surprised by how far he got without anyone noticing!
He was trying to cross the country solo when stopped by police in New South Wales on Saturday.
Highway patrol approached him after noticing was some light damage to the rear of the vehicle, a police statement says.
@CNN Proud of this kid. Dream big

@CNN Someone support this kid with driving experience and mechanic knowledge: we may have a future great grandprix or all terrain rally racer.
