Alarmed drivers on a Northern California highway spotted a young girl Saturday evening in a vehicle holding up a handmade sign that read “Help me, she’s not my mom!! Help!!” California Highway Patrol officers say.

After motorists on Highway 99 south of Elk Grove called 911, CHP officers and a K9 unit performed a high-risk stop on the vehicle near 8 Mile Road in Stockton, CHP officers wrote in a release.

Then they discovered it was just a hoax cooked up by the girl, who “thought it was a fun thing to do,” CHP officers wrote. The girl’s mom, who was driving, was not in on the prank.
 
I don't have kids but my first reaction would be to lock her back in the closet after getting home.
 
It would be the last ride in my car. She'd be walking or riding a bike until she was 18 and out of the house. Call it a long restriction.
 
I'd like to think my children had been taught that you don't play around with asking for help... you know that story about the boy who called wolf?
