If you’re like us, you aren’t surprised that a Ferrari owner lost control and drove into the ocean. Most Prancing Ponies rarely experience real high-speed driving outside of highway traffic.

So, what’s surprising about a San Francisco Bay Area who drank too much and drove his $246,000 Ferrari Portofino into the ocean? Well, it’s the fact that the California Highway Patrol clowned the owner for his actions. Then, with a detailed video posted to their social media channel, used the driver as an example to locals of the importance of driving sober.

“The driver of this Ferrari decided to get in his car and drive after consuming alcohol,” the CHP wrote on Facebook and Instagram, using R. Kelly’s I Believe I Can Fly hit as the soundtrack. “Shortly thereafter he failed to properly negotiate a curve on Seminary Drive in Unincorporated Mill Valley, then took sail, and crashed into Richardson Bay.”

The incident happened around 3:30 p.m. last Friday and sat overnight before it could towed out by a local towing company, Diego Truck Repair and Towing.

When workers finally dragged the Portofino through the tidal mud (not unlike its owner’s name), the car looked like its days of looking fancy while driving along coastal roads were over. Locals gathered to watch as they hauled the poor car out of its watery grave and loaded it onto the back of a truck.

Police put the 61-year-old Mill Valley driver into the back of a squad car at the end of the video.

“We’re thankful this crash didn’t result in fatal injuries to the driver or anyone else,” wrote the CHP. “Please designate a sober driver or call a ride-sharing service instead of driving intoxicated.”

Viewers ripped the Ferrari driver to shreds

Many locals couldn’t help but notice the proximity of the crash site to a Ferrari dealership.

“Isn’t this literally down the street from the Ferrari dealership?” read a popular comment.

Someone else noted the dealership may have forgotten to upsell something as part of the safety package.

“Dang, they forgot to add the talent option in the showroom,” they wrote.

Others couldn’t help but cite a saying everyone knows well.

“Just because you can afford it, doesn’t mean you can drive it.”
