DARIEN, Conn. (AP) — Connecticut State Police say a man fell out of his car onto Interstate 95 and watched his vehicle drive on for about two-tenths of a mile before it crashed into a pole.
Troopers say they’re not sure why 51-year-old Robert Craig of Killingworth fell out of his 2006 Dodge Charger late Tuesday morning in Darien near Exit 10. Police say Craig was treated for minor injuries at Stamford Hospital.
State police say Craig fell onto the highway but wasn’t struck by any vehicles. They say other motorists stopped to help him and get him to safety.
Troopers say the car continued down the highway before striking a light pole and metal guardrail on the right shoulder.
The accident remains under investigation.

Posted on September 1, 2010 at 1:32pmMaybe this Dodge Charger did not have rosary beads as did the one in NYC that the guy fell into from 40 stories up. The owner of that car says the man was spared because of the rosary beads in his car.

Posted on September 1, 2010 at 1:18pmOK..what are the odds of two Dodge Charger stories in succession? One a guy falls into a Dodge Charger, the other a guy falls out of a Dodge Charger.
