i can't remember a summer where I've seen more stuck cars in the sand. The 'sunset zombies' are pretty bad this year too....you know the kind, the ones that stand in the middle of the launch just staring at the sky and ocean, totally oblivious to the fact that you are revving your rig, trying to get their attention so the will M T F out of the Way!

I was there yesterday dealing with stuck humanity. I blasted through the sand before being called for it from the lifeguards. They said the day before a young girl was struck by a car trying to get through to the beach launch and now they are restricting access to only 4-wheel drive vehicles. There was also talk of closing the launch because of all the hassles.

AWE jeeeeezus......seriously it doesn't take that much skill to not get stuck...and more often than not its the hillbillies with the crew cab 4x4 f450 powerstroke diesels with bling, bling rims and 36" tires that get stuck or wreck the launch for everyone else!!! A little common sense goes a long way when driving at the launch....

Last week, you can't see all of them in this photo but there were two trucks and one Camry all stuck at the same time. Almost as entertaining as watching rental kayaks on a chest high surf day.

Actually i think the little girl was hit last summer but this brings up a very good point...DRIVE SLOW IN THE SAND!!!! peds have the "right of way" on the beach.
Recently I have seen way to many kayak fishermen haulin A$$ thru the sand on a crowded weekend afternoon often revving the engine, peeling out while yelling/honking at women and children. The people on the beach have no idea that we are trying not to get stuck, they just think the we are a bunch of jackasses.

So please, IF YOU DON'T HAVE 4x4 or U CAN'T IDLE THRU THE SAND THEN PARK IN THE GREEN AND USE YOUR WHEELS!!!

Is this one of those common sense things that Matt was referring to?
