Robert Irwin takes late father Steve Irwin’s famous truck for a spin after passing driving test

Robert Irwin, son of the late legendary animal enthusiast Steve Irwin, shared on social media that he’d taken his dad’s famous truck out for a drive after passing his driver’s test.

"Passed my driving test!" he wrote online. "My first solo drive was a super special one – took my dad’s old Ute to see Grace in the hospital right after she was born." Alongside the endearing post was a photo of Robert, 17, standing by the iconic vehicle pointing at a provisional driver’s plate and wearing a wide grin on his face.
