A Florida man was arrested Tuesday morning after he drove through a closed beach and into the ocean in Volusia County.

According to the Volusia County Sheriff’s Office, shortly before 9 a.m., deputies were called to New Smyrna Beach after a vehicle drove around a closed gate and accessed the beach without paying the toll fee.

We're all being so harsh with him. How could he have known beforehand that his truck is not a surf board?

People need to be free to experience and innovate! If it had turned out it could surf, he'd deserve the Noble prize! Sheesh!

His crime wasn't driving into the sea, it was driving on a closed beach
