VOLUSIA COUNTY, Fla. -- A 42-year-old man was hit and killed on Interstate 4 Friday after he was kicked out of his friend's car for exposing his genitals to passing motorists and told to find his own way home, police told Local 6 News.
A passing motorist found the body of Kevin Steedly early Friday on the side of Interstate 4 near exit 107 at Dirksen in Volusia County.
Florida Highway Patrol troopers said Steedly was drinking inside a car with friends as they drove westbound on I-4 toward Steedly's Winter Park home.
Steedly's friends told police that they kicked him out of the car because he was pulling down his pants and exposing himself through the car windows.
"They got nervous and kicked him out and told him to find his own ride home," Local 6 reporter Samantha Knapp said.
FHP troopers believe Steedly began to walk on I-4 at about 3:40 a.m. and was hit by a car a short time later.
Minutes before Steedly's body was found, troopers were working an unrelated crash just a few feet away and did not notice the body in the grass until after 7 a.m.
Troopers are asking for any motorists with information about the incident to call the Florida Highway Patrol.
The vehicle that hit Steedly would have heavy damage, Local 6 News reported.

Darwin nominee?
I think he would have had to fall out of the car on his own to qualify for a Darwin.
What's with his neck? Looks like Hillary's ass.
Might well be. Look at the size of his huge thick neck, with a little teeny head sitting on it.
Another alcohol-related death, no doubt.
His inappropriate behavior got him stranded on the highway. And my guess is that his behavior continued to evolve and contributed his being hit.
He's at least a dishonorable mention candidate.
Nice! In any event, He is still erased from the gene pool.lol
I think I've seen more intelligent looks on wrestlers.
He won't be doing that again!
Bend it like Steedly.
By the looks of that neck, he might have been a wrestler. The picture of him looks like a drunk mug shot too.
And why do they always have those mullet haircuts?
A flesh colored turtleneck maybe?
Too funny.... Like they say, great minds think alike.
Looks like he's been borrowing some of Barry Bond's "supplements"
I have a sneaking suspicion his buddies aren't being totally honest. "I say there, old boy. If you don't cease and desist in that rather unsavory behavior, I'm afraid we'll have to ask you to vacate the premises."
Just a few feet away and they declare it unrelated? Seems to me the one might be the cause of the other...
