Forest Grove Police Log excerpt, 28 March 2018

The selection from the local log of police activity this week features another parent demonstrating poor judgment.

March 17Police received a report of a vehicle being driven poorly near the outskirts of town. Officers located a small child, unable to see over the steering wheel, in the driver's seat with the child's father as a passenger. The father said he was teaching the child to drive. Multiple citations ensued.

This does raise a few questions, such as where was this taking place (there are several outskirts to this town) or when and how long had this been going on? All the same, it is probably unwise to attempt to teach your child to drive in a vehicle that he cannot see over the steering wheel of. That is not to say the child should not learn to drive. Just that this is the wrong tool to use to do that.
