From News10.net:
A Roseville 12-year-old can consider himself lucky — he’ll only face DUI and hit-and-run charges for his alleged drunken driving spree last weekend that had Rocklin Police relieved things didn’t end much worse…The boy allegedly showed signs of being drunk and was arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol, hit and run and driving without a driver’s license.
Two notes of interest, however (well, other than a drunk 12 year old driving a car on public streets of course)…
One, “the boy was staying with relatives at a Rocklin home when he snuck out early Saturday morning, stole his uncle’s car…”, to sneak out implies he was at home this whole time…drinking. By himself? BORING! Two, what the hell does this mean…
“Anytime you have a 12 year old behind the wheel of a car, a disastrous event is more than likely to happen. Anytime you have a 12 year old behind the wheel of a car who is intoxicated, a disastrous event is lucky to be avoided,” said Rocklin Police Lieutenant Lon Milka…”
You said it, Lieutenant.

It would have been such synchronicity if the other story had been combined with this one so when the 12-year-old was busted he was the one with the 12-pack seatbelted in his car.

It would have been so more “Yes, we live in the suburbs of Sacramento” if the the drunken 12 year old had the moxie to steer the purloined (Today’s Bonus Word) car into the side of a house. Without a car-crash-into-a-house thing, it’s almost another Thursday….

…Anytime you have a 12 year old and a kangaroo in a car…

That’s another way of making the joke, NMB. Sure.
