Best Answer

He wanted to drive Apollo's fiery chariot carring Helios across the sky despite being warned that not even Zeus himself would drive it. He held stead fast saying he would. The chariot began to go out of control and set fire to the ground Zeus himself had to stop the chariot with a lighting bolt.

In most cases, Phaethon was considered a son of Helios, and asked Helios for permission to ride his chariot, since Helios had promised on the river Styx to fulfill his request. Having no other choice, Helios had to allow his son to drive the chariot and get struck by Zeus' lightning bolt.
