MEQUON, Wis. (AP) - As many as 10 vehicles drove around barriers and onto freshly poured concrete on a busy thoroughfare during rush hour. Two got stuck, Mequon police said Thursday. "Once someone goes around the barricade and busts through the tape, others follow," Sgt. Tony Restivo said.
The drivers started bypassing the barriers on Mequon Road under the Highway 43 overpass about 6:30 p.m. Wednesday.
Several drivers quickly realized their mistake and were able to get back onto pavement, Restivo said. But a 2004 Lexus and a 2004 Mercury Marquis continued forward, became stuck and had to be towed, he said.
The company that poured the concrete estimates it will cost $20,000 to replace it, Restivo said. Police have not yet decided whether to ticket to the two drivers who got stuck.
