I was 15 once. A male, to boot ! And while I had a very abnormal interest in neat cars that over-rode the desire to drive them stupidly, the term "stupid" was subjective. Many of my high school friends wrecked many a nice car, and two died from such before we finished school.
Tony, ... you must have access to an old farm truck down that way ? .... say, a 46 Chev 2 ton with a stake bed ? Slow, sure, heavy, and able to crush most anything it comes in contact with, like 99% of the vehicles on the road (if semis are not included). An old football helmet to be worn when driving might offer the 2nd advantage of reducing the chances of his involvement in any sort of teenage pregnancy problems as well ! ;-D He'll love you for it when he's 40 and in therapy !
