Kids are resourceful!
Again I wonder how much of the fault is the parents? My little guy
loves to sit in the front seat playing driver, but he's got absolutely
no idea that the interlock is there let alone how it works and until
he learns to drive I'm not going to tell him.
It's all the fault of the parents. It's a special kind of idiot that
leaves a young child in command of an operational motor vehicle. On a
stupidity scale, it's even dumber than leaving a baby to bake in a child
seat.
At least that only has the opportunity to kill the infant. Leaving a 4
year old in charge of a running car (or even a stopped one that has the
keys in the ignition) has the potential to kill both the kid and a whole
slew of passerbys.
If a person wants to commit infanticide on their spawn, that's all well
and good. While I don't approve, it's their business and the law will
deal with them, but don't involve me in your retardic episode by letting
some 4 year old toss a car into gear and potentially take out me and my
family.
