An Oklahoma woman has been arrested after police say she drunkenly fell out of her pickup truck and her three-year-old son steered the vehicle to safety across a four-lane road.<\/p>\n
Taloa Foster, 33, was charged with child endangerment.<\/p>\n
Witnesses said the toddler grabbed the wheel and steered the truck across lanes of traffic after his mother fell from the vehicle on Wednesday.<\/p>\n
The boy’s twin brother was also in the truck at the time.<\/p>\n
The vehicle eventually crashed into an embankment along the road near Ada, about 80 miles (130km) southeast of Oklahoma City.<\/p>\n
The boys were unhurt, police said.<\/p>\n
Police said Ms Foster told them that the boy had unbuckled his seat belt and she was trying to secure him when she fell out of the vehicle.<\/p>\n
