Don't drink and make your kid drive?

WOODHAVEN, Mich. (AP) — A 9-year-old Michigan girl is in tears as she testifies about the night her dad had her drive a full-size van in suburban Detroit. Authorities say Shawn Weimer had his daughter drive because he had been drinking. He is charged with child abuse, and a judge is holding a hearing to determine if Weimer will go to trial. Police in Wayne County's Brownstown Township stopped the van in the wee hours of Oct. 8 and found the girl behind the wheel in a booster seat. The girl says she agreed to drive but "felt a little scared." She testified her dad drank half of a bottle of whiskey.

The judge called a recess as she kept crying.
