They can't issue citations for things they didn't see happen. My guess is someone accidentally put the car in drive or neutral during rigorous activity and didn't notice the car made its way into a pond. Doesn't sound like it was in deep enough to alert them (pun intended).

Quote:

The officer observed that "the vehicle was traveling west on Beach Boulevard and was attempting to turn left onto Southside Boulevard and made a wide turn, causing the vehicle to go over the sidewalk and down the embankment."

Turning left on to Southside and taking a wide turn? The "body of water" at that point is a culvert. That's certainly plausible for someone fatigued.


If they did a DUI screening and he didn't fail it, the worst he could have been charged with was careless driving. That would be enough here for some to demand his head on a platter.


1010XL is really trying to turn this into a story. Typical.
