A woman in Hohhot, the capital of north China's Inner Mongolia region, crashed her car while giving her dog a driving lesson, the official Xinhua News Agency said Monday.

No injuries were reported although both vehicles were slightly damaged, it said.

The woman, identified only be her surname, Li, said her dog "was fond of crouching on the steering wheel and often watched her drive," according to Xinhua.

"She thought she would let the dog 'have a try' while she operated the accelerator and brake," the report said. "They did not make it far before crashing into an oncoming car."

Xinhua did not say what kind of dog or vehicles were involved but Li paid for repairs.

My Shih-Tzu had a Class 1 with motorcycle endorsement. He was able to sign an "x" on his NC Driver's License application! LOL!

You guys are all a bunch of culturally insensitive clods. If you live in a country where the water buffalo makes most of the navigational decisions, relying on the dog to drive isn't that big a stretch.

If the dog is a Pomerainian she should teach it to fly.
