After his hands-free device startled him.

Tue Jan 19, 8:31 pm ET

ROSEVILLE, Calif. – A driver whose SUV plunged into a Northern California creek after he was startled by his hands-free cell phone device escaped the sinking vehicle by blasting out the window with a handgun. The 28-year-old man, whose name wasn't immediately available, is an armed security guard at Thunder Valley Casino, north of Sacramento. He sustained minor injuries in Sunday's accident.

A spokesman for the Roseville Fire Department said the man was traveling northbound on Industrial Avenue in Roseville when the cell phone device activated. The driver was startled and veered off the road through the guardrail. The SUV landed in Pleasant Grove Creek.

He used his gun to shoot himself out, then flagged down a passerby.

Shouldn't there be some sort of legislation passed in California about being able to keep a loaded firearm in your car for just this reason? I'm just sayin'. If he hadn't had the gun, well, we may not have ever known what happened. I wonder if his cell phone made it out okay.

I don't think he will be hearing much of anything after firing a weapon in a sinking enclosed vehicle.

That was one of my first thoughts as well (says the 25 year old with a permanent ringing in his left ear).
