It seems that a man by the name of Simon Lewington from Leicesterhire decided to attach a sled to the back of his truck and give his 6-year-old son the ride of his life.

Well that’s all fine and dandy but the man decided to take a route straight through city streets and even passed a police station while doing it. The act wasn’t all bad as he did put a helmet and goggles on the 6-year-old and claims to have never went above 8 mph.

The consequence? Well, after Lewington was caught he was slapped with a suspension of his license for 1 year along with 180 hours of community service. Remember dads, if you’re going to tow your kid on a sled using your truck, do it on PRIVATE property.
