Weeks after a drug-related arrest, actor Max Ehrich was cited by Port St. Lucie police for driving the wrong way on a divided highway.
The white 2020 BMW moved against the flow of traffic on a divided Port St. Lucie highway, a maneuver that caught the attention of local authorities just after 9 a.m. on September 30. Behind the wheel was Max Ehrich. the singer and actor whose recent history with Florida law enforcement has become increasingly frequent.
This latest traffic citation arrives less than a month after his August 25 arrest in the state for possession of nitrous oxide. The sequence of events points to a difficult period for Ehrich. who also faced a domestic violence arrest in Florida in October 2025. Following that earlier incident, he publicly stated his intention to enter a rehabilitation program.
Ehrich’s name first gained widespread public attention during his brief, high-profile relationship with Demi Lovato. The two became engaged in 2020 after dating for several months, though the engagement dissolved quickly; they officially parted ways in September of that same year.
Attempts to reach Ehrich for comment regarding the September 30 citation have not yet been successful. As it stands, the actor remains under scrutiny by local officials following this latest roadside encounter.
