Deputies in western Wisconsin arrested a 32 year old woman and her 36 year old boyfriend for teaching her daughter to drive.

Just because her daughter was nine years old. And they were both more than twice the legal limit. And there was a toddler in the vehicle.

Drivers along a rural road near Amery, Wisconsin, called in reports of seeing a truck swerving. Deputies found the truck at a boat launch along the Apple River, where they prevented the truck from rolling on to the ice.

The officers took the family first to the hospital–the woman had suffered a laceration on her hand, reportedly while snowmobiling–where she continued to swear, swing and kick at them. The couple was then taken to jail, while the kids were placed with other family members.

When questioned about the 9-year old driving, the child’s mother reportedly told police that she was just practicing her driving, noting that “[Children] used to in the 1950s.”

Never mind that she was born in the early to mid 80’s.

The couple now faces felony charges for recklessly endangering safety and child neglect–but they are not being charged with DWI.
