Police also found the car on the M1 motorway, which connects London in the south with Leeds in the north.
“But nothing prepared us for finding a schoolboy behind the wheel,” North Yorkshire Police said.
The boy was arrested on suspicion of a number of offences, including theft, burglary, leaving behind equipment for theft and motor vehicle offences, including dangerous driving, the statement said.
