May 27 (UPI) — A Wisconsin driver moved a “road closed” barrier and continued on their way — only to get their pickup truck stuck in freshly-poured concrete.

The Wisconsin Department of Transportation said on social media that the Milwaukee County driver “cemented their inability to adhere to signs” by moving the barrier to the side and driving onto the wet concrete at the interchange of Interstate 41/894/US 45 and National Avenue.

The department shared a photo of the pickup with its tires almost completely submerged in the freshly-poured concrete.

A video from the scene shows police and road crews using heavy machinery to pull the stuck truck out of its predicament.

“Crews place barricades and signs for your safety and theirs. Please — never remove or ignore ‘road closed’ or any other types of barriers… or this might happen to you,” the post said.
