Second what stupid ass parent lets their 13 year old drive more so after he burned the house down after forgetting he was cooking something?
Little bundle of joy, apparently.
Weird stuff.
Kid was snakebit.
“Second what stupid ass parent lets their 13 year old drive”
Or lets him cook.
No wonder those guys stick with horses.
Dear God!
And I though I was a disappointment to my folks.
Why the F was this kid driving!?
Gotta be more to this odd story...
The Amish and the Mennonites are different sects. Mennonites have cars and trucks and cell phones. They just prefer to be less dependent on the supply chain.
I get your point, but the Mennonites are not Amish. I deal with a lot of them in the area, and they tend to be fine folks. In fact, I was in both Andrews and Seminole Tuesday morning- I’m saddened to hear of this.
Some say he were driving on a spare tire that failed causing the swerve.
I still think he certainly should not have been driving.
But Good tires are always important.
Poor Jethro… he never WAS “right in the head”…
Mennonite are NOT Amish. Same roots, different practices. Amish do NOT own trucks.
I’ll bet the kid’s name was Damion.
My dad would let me drive to Jr High School in his 1970 Eldorado when I was 13 in 1973. I would pull up to the curb and he would take over and drive to his Auto Mechanic Garage a couple blocks away.
When we travelled cross country, my mom, dad, brother and me would take turns driving.
By the time I took driver’s ed, our instructor would just tell me where to go and he would grade papers in the passenger seat. But with the other 2 kids in the car he would ride his brake.
Tire blew and pulled the truck across the road. I wonder if the boy, who shouldn’t have been driving, did not have the strength to hold the truck in position till he pulled off the road. I wonder if the father could have.
When I was young my right tire blew and it did pull the car to the right and I applied the brake gently and had a devil of a time controlling the car to make it go in a straight line.
Sad story but the father shouldn’t have had this boy driving.
You can’t make up weirder headlines than are coming out daily. The Bee can’t compete with the truth.
I am so old that I took Driver’s Ed and got my learner’s permit at 13 here in Texas per the law then. Took my test and got my license on my 14th Birthday.
Wonder if the house burning was a failed suicide or homicide attempt, and that the last one was successful.
Don't you believe in second chances? 🤣🤣🤣
Bad seed
I’m unconvinced that any of these were “accidents”.
