When I was about 3 or 4, my grandad used to sit me on his lap when driving the car and I'd steer (he did have hold of the wheel aswell)

I was caught with my daughter, or son (alzheimer's setting in - can't remember now) 'driving' along Blackpool seafront through the lights by the Boyz in Blue, it was right at the end next to the donation collection tub too! She/he was about 3 at the time, about 17 or 18 yrs back, the copper explained the errors of my ways and sent me on my way. We were only about 5 mph!  ::)

Nice to see a little discretion being used....

That said - on today's roads, it's totally out of order.....
