Bodycam footage posted to the agency's Facebook page showed a deputy taking the suspect into custody just moments after the crash, which left the man's truck on its side.
In the video, the driver claimed he was a first responder who was "perfectly fine".
"I'm a firefighter. I'm Florida state police. Chill," the suspect told the deputy who responded to the scene of the wreck.
"You're going to get out (of the vehicle) and lie on the ground," the deputy responded with a stun gun pointed at the suspect.
The video then showed the man, whose name has not been released, proceed to climb out of the back window of the truck and was promptly handcuffed.
No other details about the incident have been released by the sheriff's office.
