Donald Everett Waters, 39, is charged with two felony counts of wanton endangerment, in addition to resisting arrest, carrying a concealed deadly weapon, leaving the scene of an accident and driving under the influence. Waters was stopped for hit and run when it was discovered that he was allegedly letting his 7-year-old son drive for him. Police stopped his van on I-64 in Kentucky. They say that Waters was working the pedals while his 7-year-old son Cody was sitting on his lap steering.
[Clark County Sheriff's Deputy Ricky Estes] described Waters as “semiconscious.”“He said he was en route to Florida, and his son was going to get him there,” Estes said.
Waters’ 3-year-old son was also in the van, Estes said. He said it appeared Waters had been living out of the vehicle.
Waters was arrested and the children were taken by social services.
