Umm, somebody might wanna check on this dude…
Guy just wanted to drive his truck on the beach, I guess. And apparently his "truck don't surf." He actually said that. Not sure if he had plans of teaching the truck how to surf or what. Also, no mention of a DUI here, which absolutely blows my mind.
These people who do these strange things, they always end up looking exactly like you thought they'd look.
See what I'm saying?
Not gonna lie, I'd have a beer with that guy.
Though I'll have to wait until he's out of jail.
Jason Brzuszkiewicz, 49, was arrested and charged with failure to pay an access fee after he allegedly bypassed the closed beach access gate at New Smyrna Beach just before 9 a.m. on Tuesday and drove his Dodge Ram pickup truck onto the shore, according to an arrest affidavit from the Volusia Sheriff's Office. Brzuszkiewicz allegedly drove around the 'DO NOT ENTER' sign without paying the toll fee.
So let me get this straight, he wasn't arrested for driving in the ocean, just for not paying to drive in the ocean? Not really, the tide was a bit too high, so the beach was closed to vehicles. But as I'm reading this I can't help but wonder had the tide been lower and the gates open ... would Jason Brzuszkiewicz have been good to go? Is it legal to teach your pickup truck how to surf in New York?
Deputies informed Brzuszkiewicz, however, that the beach was closed to cars because the tide was too high.
'It's not my fault the truck don't surf,"'Brzuszkiewicz told deputies upon his arrest, according to bodycam footage from the sheriff's office.
'Yeah, but you shouldn't be driving on the beach when the gates are all closed,' the deputy replied.
'Can I get in trouble for that?"'Brzuszkiewicz asks.
"Yeah, yeah,' the deputy said …
Brzuszkiewicz was transported to the Volusia Branch Jail on $200 bond, and his truck was towed. No one was hurt as a result of the incident, deputies say.
Well, hopefully I'll have an update for you on this guy in a few weeks, because if he's thinking what I'm thinking, once the tide's low and those gates are open, it's gonna be surfing lessons for that Dodge Ram. He'll just have to pay the fee to get in.
For the record, my bets are on the ocean.
