On the Seven Mile Bridge in the Florida Keys, dashcam footage showed a man wildly weaving in and out of traffic before leaping from his truck and into the sea below.
Homestead resident Joshua Seth Lapidus, 34, was later arrested, placed in handcuffs, and captured on another dashcam pleading for mercy from a Florida Highway Patrol policeman.
Listen, the guy continues, “I know I did some stupid things just now, but it wasn’t that stupid.”
The trooper said that it was that foolish.
Listen up, I’m not downplaying this. Lapidus responds, “I’m just saying.”
The FHP reports that the event happened on November 26 at 2:30 p.m. The black 2019 Dodge Ram pickup truck was traveling at 70 mph in a 45 mph zone when troopers tried to stop it.
According to an arrest record, the car reached speeds of above 100 mph while weaving in and out of traffic and refused to stop for law enforcement.
