A Tesla owner drove his electric car into the ocean in Carpenteria. He drove the Tesla onto the beach, which is illegal. He got stuck in the sand, and then the tide came in. Santa Barbara county sheriff’s deputies advised the Tesla owner, “You need to get your Tesla out of the ocean.” The Tesla owner said he hoped to find an electric tow truck to remove his vehicle from the surf.
