Ypsilanti Township, MI (AHN)-Authorities say a 5-year-old boy hopped behind the wheel of a sport utility vehicle and drove it several blocks looking for his mother following an argument with his grandmother.

The child was not injured in his short drive, and his grandmother's 2004 Cadillac Escalade was reportedly stopped without incident.

Washtenaw County Sheriff's Cmdr. Dave Egeler tells The Ann Arbor News, the boy, whose full name wasn't released, started the truck, cranked up the stereo and stood on the driver's seat to see over the steering wheel.

According to police reports, the boy told sheriff's deputies he was "looking for his mommy," and was not expected to face any charges.

Egeler says a motorist called police to report that her vehicle was nearly struck by an SUV that appeared to be driven by a child, while an off- duty deputy also noticed the boy and pulled him from the vehicle before he drove any farther.

1. Stood on the driver's seat?

The kid knows how to use cruise control already?

2. Idle speed.

Probably a couple/few miles per hour. What an image!
