An 11-year-old boy caught behind the wheel of a car had been taken out for a
driving lesson to stop him playing Grand Theft Auto all day, police said.
The unnamed youngster was taken to a car park in Blackpool by a family member
on Sunday in a bid to get him off his PS4.
But the schoolboy, who was driving a red Vauxhall Astra, was spotted by police
who reported the adult for traffic offences.
Taking to Twitter, Lancashire Road Police said:‘The driver of this car was
11-years-old. Yes, eleven.
A family member was fed up with the child playing Grand Theft Auto all day on
the PlayStation, so brought him out to practice driving on a car park in
Blackpool.
‘The adult has been reported for traffic offences.’
The post prompted a mixed reaction from other Twitter users.
Alex Davies commented: ‘Seriously 11? Really don’t get why an eleven year
old was behind the wheel.’
Caroline Chapman wrote: ‘Why was an 11 year old playing GTA?’
Tucker Smith tweeted: ‘Back in the day this was normal, apart from the gaming
bit.’
On Facebook, Damian Evans added: ‘They do driving lessons for children aged
10 and over in Bolton. He should have just booked the kid on one of those.’

簡單來說,英國警方處理了一個交通事件,是一台紅色的Vauxhall Astra 轎車,車上的
駕駛是一位11歲男孩。
調查後發現這男孩因為成天都在玩PS4上的GTA。
他的父母為了讓他戒掉GTA,所以派了家中成員帶他去停車場練習開車。
然後就剛好被警方抓到了。
英國在15歲才能申請駕駛,17歲才能上路。17歲以下可以在私人土地上練習,看來他開到
非私人土地上去了。
也有網友問為什麼11歲能玩GTA。 (GTA是限制級遊戲)
