Oh, he's got all that sussed too, I'm very forthcoming if he asks about anything else. But the interlocks are such that the brake pedal needs to be fully depressed and the ignition on for the stick to be able to be taken out of park, it won't even release the key until the transmission is set to park. It's a big car, he's still tiny and I have long legs, so without an accomplice it would be a feat of engineering for him to be able to actually get the car out of park (assuming the car was idling). I think that I have quite a few years to go before I need to be too concerned and in any case he has to be big enough to wrestle my keys off me first :-) > She will be fully capable of the mechanics of driving in another two > years.
