Tom Hanks' son had to law enforcement with the police on Tuesday afternoon, when he was pulled over by the police in Venice Beach. His Lamborghini Urus got the attention of the officers because it wasn't wearing any license plates.
Chet Hanks was reportedly driving his high-performance SUV in Los Angeles with no registration plates. The incident happened soon after the 33-year-old had uploaded a selfie to Instagram.

The photo showed him on board his Lamborghini SUV, wearing sunglasses with rectangular lenses and transparent frames, a white T-shirt, and a chain around his neck. He was spotted wearing the same outfit when he was pulled over, so there is a chance the encounter with law enforcement was on the same day.

His Instagram post was accompanied by the caption that announced the beginning of the "White Boy Summer" (WBS) to his over 547,000 followers.

As reported by Daily Mail, Chet Hanks had a passenger with him when he was pulled over. He seemed to be recording the actor's interaction with the police.

Hanks Junior's Lamborghini Urus seems pretty much stock. The car he bought a little over a year ago rocks a black exterior over a black leather interior with contrasting red stitching.

The Lamborghini SUV is powered by a 4.0-liter biturbo V8 engine that pumps out 657 horsepower (666 metric horsepower) and 627 pound-feet (850 Newton meters) of torque for a run from 0 to 60 mph (0 to 97 kph) in just 3.4 seconds. The needle of the speedometer goes all the way to a top speed of 306 kph (190 mph).

Tom Hanks' son is an actor himself and a musician. In fact, earlier this month, he teased via Instagram that he may be releasing new music.

Quite a controversial personality, Chet is not exactly what you would call a "car enthusiast" like his Academy Award-winning father. However, he had to deal with several issues when cars were involved. When he was 25, he reportedly rear-ended the Mercedes-Benz belonging to Terry Moogan, who was born in Scotland Road, but spent most of his life in Los Angeles as a butler for several Hollywood A-listers.

He sued Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson for the crash that took place in February 2015, because, at the time of the incident, Chet Hanks was driving his parents' Chevrolet.

Chet has the reputation of a reckless driver and has struggled with drug and alcohol abuse. However, at the time of the supposed crash, he was not driving under the influence and was never charged with DUI. Hanks Junior described the accident as a "typical fender bender" and nothing more.

Luckily, this time, there was no crash involved. But he or anyone else can't drive a car with no license plate on public roads anywhere in America.
