A 13-year-old boy who drove his family’s Volkswagen (underage and without a license) in the middle of the night for a joyride, was given six penalty points on his driving license which he will not be eligible to receive for another two years

The teenager, who cannot be named for legal reasons, was spotted by other motorists driving the 2.5-litre silver van on the A35, a busy dual carriageway in Poole. When asked by the district judge, the boy admitted it was not the first time he had taken the vehicle. https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026/feb/04/boy-13-who-took-family-campervan-on-70mph-joyride-given-points-on-future-licence imagine what car insurance will cost him?
