A man's vehicle slid into a Michigan river after he got out to use the restroom.
According to a Facebook post by the Allen Park Police Department, a man drove his car onto the banks of the Rouge River "as mother nature was calling."
When he exited the vehicle, the car slid and landed right into the river. The man did attempt to stop the vehicle but was unsuccessful.
Luckily, the post said that the man was not hurt while trying to save his car. However, they couldn't say the same thing about his car.
Here is what the Facebook post said:
"This evening, us, APFD, DFD are on the banks of the Rouge River. There was a fella that decided to drive his vehicle along the banks. He had a moment where he exited the vehicle as mother nature was calling. While doing so he observed that his vehicle was sliding into the river.!! He failed to stop the slide and become wet. He is 100% fine. His car is currently a bit wet or better said...... submerged. Dearborn fire rescue along with APFD are working to get the vehicle out. Don't drive on the banks if the Rouge River."
Many Facebook users commented on the post. Some were angry and others cracked jokes about the situation, but the official Facebook page for the City of Allen Park - Government, was unhappy to hear about the incident. They commented:
"Allen Park Police Department and Allen Park Fire Department - Please make sure to get this fella’s insurance information so we can bill them for this recovery. There is absolutely no reason that the residents of Allen Park and Dearborn should have to pay for his actions. Hopefully everyone returns to the Stations safely."
