The kid probably has been taking his folk's car out when they're out or not paying attention. I don't know anything about Brazil's laws, but I can't imagine that a kid this young is driving legally.

He better hope and pray that his parents don't find video this or he'll probably be grounded (or should be) until he's 30.

I think that is just plain stupid. Not only because of his age and has the car but hes also recording himself driving on public roads. Im sure his ego is probably larger then the engine. Hopefully this kid is careful

My conclusions is it was on back of a trailer. Looked like it was riding kinda high. Dunno.

I thought the same thing, and when the camera swings past the front it "glares" out

yeah, if you look at 55-56 seconds in, you will see a prius or small cross-over car drive past, and the roof doesn't even look like it reached the bottom of the window. lmao good try kid.

This is not normal in that country. I have family there and for the most part, I have found the youth much more respectful than here in the US. I can tell you the driving age is 18.

You're right, the legal age to drive is 18. I am a brazilian myself and I can tell you it is not uncommon seen underage kids driving around. That's the problem of Brazil, If you're loaded, you can get away with pretty much ...anything!
