You can't make something like this up.

MANITOWOC, Wis. (AP) — A Wisconsin man who became lodged in the windshield of a car that struck him said he turned to the driver and said, "Hello, I'm the guy you hit on the bicycle."
The driver did not respond, but continued on, running a stop sign and hitting another vehicle before he arrived home, the cyclist, Steven Gove, told HTR Media about the Saturday incident
quote:
The man finally noticed Gove when he stopped the car outside his home.
"He looked at me and said 'Who are you? What are you doing in the car?'" Gove said. "He started freaking out: 'I'm going to jail, I'm going to jail.'"
The man then locked the car doors and went into his home. Gove, whose body had gone most of the way through the windshield, then pulled his knees and feet into the car.
"I righted myself and got out," he said. "I unlocked the passenger's side door and started walking down the street."
A witness had called police, who found Gove as he was walking and took him to a hospital. Doctors removed glass from Gove's eyes and treated him for other cuts to the head and leg.
The driver, a 20-year-old Manitowoc man, was found at the home and treated at a hospital for a serious cut to the hand. He hadn't been formally charged as of Tuesday morning, but he was facing several preliminary charges, including suspicion of drunken driving, suspicion of hit-and-run causing injury and suspicion of failing to render aid.

That's wrong on so many levels.

Maybe he thought the guy was trying to break into his car. Sounds like the guy on the bike should be charged with B&E.

Probably an Amway salesman and thought it could be a new customer.

I would love to know what the driver blew on the breathalyzer. I've seen some people so drunk they literally did not know what was going on a foot away from them. I imagine he's going to jail for quite a while.

The same thing happened a few years ago in Texas except the driver was a woman and she hit a homeless man then left him to die, screaming for help, with his head lodged in her windshield and the car locked up in the garage over the next couple of days.
