    Default Dad teaches son how to drive in a Ferrari

    Teenage drivers can be scary. A teenage driver behind the wheel of a high-performance exotic can be deadly. But maybe there is an argument to learning to drive and even taking your driving test in such a powerful car. One teen in London may be doing just that after he underwent driving lessons behind the wheel of a 202-mph 562-hp Ferrari 458 Italia. The boy's instructor, his father, is also mostly likely also the car's owner. The car wore an L-plate, a square white plate bearing a large red “L” that must be placed at both the front and back of a vehicle with a learner driver behind the wheel.

    I learned how to drive in a damn Citroën 2CV, It was a stick but very unusual. The shifter came out horizontal straight out of the dash.

    I learned how to drive in my mom's BMW 528i and then I learned how to drive a manual in my dad's short course truck which was probably the most difficult thing to figure out cause it's not your traditional gated type shifter. To learn in a Ferrari is on a whole other level!

    Hmmmm.. filmed outside Harrods, with the L plate on the back stuck on backwards.

    Unless there's video of this kid and his dad driving it I'm saying it was done for shits and giggles by the owner.

    I learned how to drive in one of my dads corvettes, and I did drop the clutch once or twice. You learn not to do that

    lol I sure wouldn't mind learning to drive in a 458 italia. But then again, I was worried about crashing my mom's C230 when learning how to drive, I don't think I would want to worry about crashing a 458.
