A five-year-old boy was pulled over May 4 while driving his mother’s car to California to purchase a Lamborghini. 

A state trooper noticed a vehicle swerving on Interstate 15 driving 30 mph. The trooper originally assumed that the driver must have been under the influence. 

“How old are you? You’re 5 years old?” trooper Rick Morgan asked the young boy. “Wow… Where did you learn to drive a car?” 

Morgan told KSL-TV that he had to guide the child to get the SUV into park. 

“He was sitting on the front edge of the seat so that he could reach the brake pedal to keep the car stopped while I was standing there,” he told the television station. 

When asked about his drive, the child told the trooper that he had the plan to drive to California to purchase a Lamborghini with three dollars to his name. The starting price for the luxury vehicle is about $200,000. 

A local prosecutor must decide whether or not to file charges against the child’s parents who left him inside as sibling’s car while they were away from home.
