Boy takes over 4WD after dad collapses

Boy takes over 4WD after dad collapses: "His fast-thinking son grabbed the steering wheel and pulled the handbrake as the vehicle slammed a road sign on the median strip."

I guess as a parent you'd have to be mighty pleased you had a nine year old who could take swift and effective action like that. That kind of parenting needs to be bottled and sold. The Dad had a medical condition and the young boy thought his way very quickly out of a crisis. He had some excellent skills in observation and risk management because no one was hurt and his actions prevented what could have been an awful state of affairs. Hopefully the Dad is okay and his condition can be managed, but , that's my boy!!
