The height of popular Ghanaian actor Joe Shortingo has created speculations that he is too short to drive a car because he may not be able to see the road.

But the diminutive actor tells NEWS-ONEin an inclusive interview that he drives depending on the car.

“I drive but I don’t drive on busy roads like market places because I’m scared. But I drive both manual and automatic cars. Once I can see my front, I will drive. I drive Kaakyire Kwame Appiah’s Benz car,” he said.

“There are some cars that I can’t drive because my legs can’t reach the accelerator or breaks, if even I adjust them. But there are others that are user-friendly for people like me,” he added. 

Currently, Joe does not have a car of his own but he owns a Kia truck that is being used for commercial purposes.

Joe Shortingo said persons who doubt he can drive should get him a user-friendly car to test him.
