A careless driver ignored a “No Vehicles on Beach or Dunes” sign and drove his Tesla Cybertruck onto a California beach, where it got stuck in the sand.
A video taken by a bystander captured the entire ordeal, showing the driver, who was from Nevada, speaking with firefighters and other officials as his Cybertruck hovered a few feet from the waves.
Moments later, firefighters attempted to push the 6.8430-pound vehicle off the beach.
The woman who recorded the video, which was shared with KSBW8, narrated: “Today is March 4 and some idiot decided to take his Tesla to the sand.”
He added that the driver was “furious.”
The firefighters could be seen slowly rolling the truck backwards, with a lot of effort and tension.

The debacle, which occurred Monday at Marina State Beach, is just the latest in a growing list of bad press for the $80,000 Cybertruck.
Musk’s truck, launched to much fanfare, has been plagued by technical issues such as software glitches and serious brake failures since its launch in November.
The Cybertruck’s website claims its towing capacity is “the equivalent of that of an average African elephant.”
And the vehicle’s acoustic glass helps “make the cabin as quiet as outer space.”
The website also claims that the truck is “durable and tough enough to go anywhere.”
Members of the Marina Fire Department, who were eventually able to get the Cybertruck off the beach after deflating its tires, might disagree with that statement.
The Tesla Cybertruck weighs 6,843 pounds. and it costs 80,000 dollars
The Cybertruck’s website boasts that it is “durable and rugged enough to go anywhere.”
And the website claims the vehicle is “built for any planet,” a claim that contradicts what happened on the beach on Monday.
The Nevada driver was fined about $280 for violating the no-driving-on-sand law.
The Cybertruck’s website also states that the vehicle is “built for any planet,” but this driver discovered that doesn’t include sandy beaches.
