Generally speaking, it would be considered a really bad idea to try to teach your dog to drive. After all, then they'll be hounding you for the keys. Literally.
BEIJING – A woman in Hohhot, the capital of north China's Inner Mongolia region, crashed her car while giving her dog a driving lesson, the official Xinhua News Agency said Monday.
No injuries were reported although both vehicles were slightly damaged, it said.
The woman, identified only be her surname, Li, said her dog "was fond of crouching on the steering wheel and often watched her drive," according to Xinhua.
"She thought she would let the dog 'have a try' while she operated the accelerator and brake," the report said. "They did not make it far before crashing into an oncoming car."
So this would be a case of putting the poodle to the metal? Inquiring minds want to know.
