An 8-year-old girl wanted a Frappuccino — so she drove a car 13 miles to get one

She drove 13 miles to a Starbucks inside a Target. From the map that Channel 5 showed there are at least 3 non-national chain coffee shops either enroute or within 2 miles of her. Commenters keep saying how determined of a girl she is, while I just see another “good” consumer being created waiting in line at the local Bucks at 6am for their caffeine fix.

I don’t live quite rural enough to have anything stick shift besides my car. Now a days with vehicles being push button start, lane keep, and obstacle avoidance I think a lot of kids could probably make the trip and not get in a serious accident. Of course all those nanny features are also great for our aging population.
