Palm Coast Man’s Road Rage Spectacle Ends in Arrest

A Palm Coast man’s road rage spectacle ends in arrest after he wakes up one morning and decides, “You know what? Today is the day I become the next Vin Diesel!” Armed with his trusty white Ford, he hits the road, completely unaware that his need for speed is about to take him on a one-way trip to the slammer.

According to Fox 35, Bryant Stanley, a 50-year-old with an appetite for adventure, decides it’s a grand idea to turn State Road 100 into his very own racetrack. But that’s not enough for this thrill-seeker. He cranks up the intensity by playing a game of “let’s-see-how-close-I-can-get-to-running-another-car-off-the-road.”

Now Stanley isn’t satisfied with just giving his fellow driver a good scare. No way, he kicks it up a notch by channeling his inner Dirty Harry. Cool as a cucumber, he points a gun at the poor soul through his passenger side window. Apparently, a friendly wave or a thumbs-up just wasn’t cutting it for him that day.

Naturally, Stanley’s joyride comes to an abrupt halt when the deputies catch wind of his stupidity. It’s like a scene straight out of an action-packed blockbuster as they chase him through the streets of Palm Coast, finally nabbing him on Palm Coast Parkway and Cypress Point Parkway.

Palm Coast Road Rage:

Additionally, to add a touch of Hollywood drama, the Flagler County Sheriff’s Office releases body camera footage of the arrest. It comes complete with a gripping finale where the deputies discover a gun with a bullet chilling in the chamber. Talk about a loaded situation!

He’s now comfortably booked into the Flagler County jail, facing a charge of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. The price for his shot at freedom? A hefty $50,000 bond. Let’s hope he’s got a top-notch lawyer or a secret stash of cash hidden away.

Remember, the next time you feel the urge to unleash your inner speed demon and engage in a game of “gunpoint roulette,” think twice. It’s a surefire way to end up in the slammer. Also, let’s face it, orange jumpsuits aren’t exactly the height of fashion.

Video: Drunk Florida Man Passes Out While Driving His Boat, Narrowly Misses Swimmers On Madeira Beach

I’ve been boating in Florida a lot and there’s one main rule. The driver needs to be sober. I don’t care how drunk you get when you get to shore, but drunk boating can get very dangerous. This incident along Madeira Beach in St. Petersburg could have ended much differently.

Not sure how long he had been speeding along slumped over the wheel, but long enough that the Pinellas County Sheriff’s Office helicopter was able to get over him and get this video. The boat luckily kept along the shoreline rather than heading to the beach. You can see he was close enough that he went in between the swimmers and the kayaker.

I wish the helicopter would have zoomed in so we could see the looks on the faces of the people on Madeira Beach. I’m sure some of them were just as drunk as the guy driving the boat. Back in high school we called it Mad Beach. Do they still call it that? I have about a week’s worth of stories I could tell about that place, but some of the people involved are married and have families now. It wouldn’t be right. I’m trying to be respectful, Brenda.

 

  • Here's the video

    I love the part about the beer can on the deck. Ok, I’ll stop. I don’t want to spoil it.

  • So what's the penalty for BWI

    I mean, I had to know. So from the Pinellas County Sheriff’s Department, here’s what he can be expecting.

    BWI penalty
