I’m just marveling at the part where the kid got the key into the ignition and turned it far enough to get the starter motor cranking:
TAMPA (AP) – Authorities said a [2-year-old] toddler slipped out of his mother’s locked motel room, climbed into his family’s car and accidentally drove it through the room’s door and window….
[Hillsborough County sheriff’s Lt. Rod] Reder said while Rex’s mother was showering, the youngster managed to get the car keys, unlock the motel room door, and go outside and enter the unlocked car.
Once he started the manual-transmission vehicle, it lurched forward about eight feet, crashing through the door and window of Room 133, Reder said. Hopkins had left the car in first gear, Reder said.
Why, yes, I have 21-month-old twin boys. Why do you ask?
