11-Year-Old Boy Arrested For Driving Dad’s Car
An 11-year-old boy and his father were arrested today after a video of the boy driving his father's car down Jalan Banting-Pandamaran in Klang went viral last Friday.
South Klang district police chief ACP Cha Hoong Fong said the pair were apprehended at a house in Pandamaran near here at 1.15 p.m. after police received a 1:21-minute viral video of the boy driving a silver Proton Saga around 6 p.m. on Friday.

The father, 49, and his son were taken to the traffic police station at the South Klang district police headquarters for further investigation under Section 39(1) of the Road Transport Act 1987 for underage driving, Section 111 of the same Act for conspiring or allowing the commission of an offence, and Section 31(1)(a) of the Child Act 2001 for neglecting or exposing a child that could result in physical or emotional harm.
Cha also advised the public not to be complacent and to keep an eye on their children's movements to avoid untoward incidents.
