Man Pulls Self From Car

It's no small feat to get yourself out of a car when it's rolled over onto its driver's side. But somehow, Eric Cunningham managed to do so on August 15.

Cunningham, 19, of 1 Cedar Spring Lane, Woodbury, was southbound on Transylvania Road at approximately 8:15 p.m. when he traveled off the lefthand shoulder at the intersection of Transylvania Road and Bear Hill Road. Police said his car glanced off a utility pole and ran over two mailboxes before rolling over onto the driver's side in the northbound lane.

Cunningham managed to get himself out of the car and had no obvious injuries, according to police. He refused transport to a hospital, police said. The car was towed from the scene. Cunningham was issued an infraction for unreasonable speed.

Officer Jody Rockhill investigated.
