Deputies said they first tried to stop the driver near the intersection of North Atlantic Avenue and the Cocoa Beach Causeway where he admitted to drinking.
“The deputy was walking back to his car to run his license and see if it was valid, and those types of things he took off at a very high rate of speed driving very erratically,” said Tod Goodyear with the Brevard County Sheriff’s Office.
