While many parents might fear the moment their kids are old enough to drive, Matthew McConaughey is eager that moment has come for his son Levi.
The Fool's Gold actor's son is a month away from ringing in his milestone 16th birthday, and his dad is making sure he's ready to hit the road, by teaching him how to drive of course.
In honor of the upcoming special milestone, and Father's Day on June 16, the father-son duo have fittingly partnered with Lincoln, and are taking fans along on their poignant driving lessons.
In a video shared on both Matthew and Levi's Instagram plus by Lincoln, the Oscar-winning actor is seen in the driver's seat, telling his son: "Alright Levi, you know what time it is? It's about time for you to have your independence."
He then recalled: "My favorite day of my life was when I got my driver's license," and reflected: "It meant freedom, it meant independence."
"Now it's your time, you ready?" he asked his son, adding: "Time to get behind the wheel," before the two undid their seatbelts and made their way to switch seats.
Fans were then quick to take to the comments section under the post and gush about the tender moment, with one writing: "You're such a great dad," as others followed suit with: "Enjoy the ride!" and: "This is the bee's knees… so much love here!" as well as: "Totally agree, Matthew! Love for the world to see how fathers share wisdom with their children," plus another fan fittingly added: "Alright, alright, alright. Time to drive the streets of Austin," referring to Matthew's signature catchphrase from 1993's Dazed and Confused.
