Three year old gets bike licence

From http://www.ananova.com/News/story/sm_3440125.html

A three-year-old boy has been granted a special licence to ride a motorcycle by judges in India.

Azeem Khan had to prove he could control the powerful Royal Enfield Bullet after his dad added special extensions to the controls so he could reach them.
"He is much safer than most adult drivers I know," said proud dad Shantanu, of New Delhi.
"I used to sit him on my bike and he would always grab at the controls. One day he will be a professional racer for sure," he added.
But Azeem, who turns four next month, is not allowed out on the main roads on his own.
"Of course I won't let him drive on the busy roads without me on the bike as well. I trust Azeem but I don't trust other drivers," he said.
And the pint-sized biker already has his sights set on his next set of wheels.
"What he really wants is a Harley Davidson but he'll have to wait a few more years for that," added his father.

I'm not sure that I'd describe an Enfield Bullet as 'powerful', though it might be to a 3 year old. And the bike in the picture certainly doesn't look like an Enfield.
