<p>The world's smallest car - just 25 inches high and 4 feet long - which can be safely driven on the road has entered the Guinness World Records.<br /><br /></p>.<p>Custom car maker Austin Coulson in the US set the record as the owner of the smallest roadworthy car, which he can legally drive on the road.<br /><br />"I've always wanted to have a Guinness World Records (title) for something and automotive was always my favourite," said Coulson.<br /><br />"So I went home and looked up this current world record and thought, 'I could do that,'" he said.<br /><br />Coulson's car measures 25 inches high; 2 feet, 1.75 inches wide; and 4 feet, 1.75 inches long, and can be spotted by its Texas vanity license plates reading "IM BIG."<br /><br />To qualify as a roadworthy vehicle, Coulson needed to get the car registered and inspected and had to install a number of required safety features, according to Guinness website.<br /><br />These included federally approved safety glass for the windshield, functioning windshield wipers and department of transportation-approved signal lights, a seat belt, and working horn.<br /><br />"When I told my family I was going to try and get the world record for the smallest roadworthy car, they were a little sceptical at first," Coulson said.<br /><br />"All along, the whole process, they kept questioning it. They knew I could build the car, they just didn't think I could get it legal," said Coulson.</p>
