AN Italian motorist plunged to his death early Sunday after stopping at the side of the road to urinate without realizing in the darkness that he was on a viaduct nine meters (30 feet) above the ground, a report said.
His companion told emergency services that 36-year-old Ermes Calautto jumped over a security rail after stopping the car near Cavolano di Sacile in the northeast at around 3:00am local time, the ANSA news agency reported.
When he had not returned after a few minutes, she got out of the car to see what happened and heard him groaning in the darkness, the report said.
The woman alerted authorities but he was dead when they arrived.
