Roseville Police arrested a 24-year-old man Wednesday who tried to use his feet to brake his moving car and failed, hitting four cars along the way.
The Fred Flintstone wannabe, a roofer from Warren, was driving on a suspended license and was cited for Reckless Driving in the incident, in which police said he was completely sober, just “overly tired.”
He “will face a judge in September, to explain his moronic decision making,” said Deputy Chief James Berlin in a statement.
At about 5:45 p.m. police said witnesses saw the man stop at 11 Mile Road and Bunert to check his brakes, which had apparently failed. He drove onto northbound Groesbeck Highway, with his feet outside the car door serving as brakes. At the intersection of Groesbeck Highway and 13 Mile Road, he couldn’t stop in time to avoid running a red light, and hit two cars in the intersection. He drove off, still using his feet as brakes, and hit two more cars at the intersection of Groesbeck and Utica Road. He then stopped.
Vehicle damage was minor and there were no injuries.
