John Irwin, et al v. Elizabeth Gessinger, et al:On the night of Feb. 28, 2004, defendant Elizabeth Gessinger, of New Canaan, apparently dozed off, losing control of her Ford Explorer. It came to rest in the left and part of the right southbound lanes of Interstate-95 in Old Lyme.
A car containing Joshua Zuckerman, of Waterbury, with passenger Matthew Rice, stopped on the right shoulder, leaving a cramped opening for traffic. Driver John Irwin and Gina Smith, an unmarried couple in a third car, attempted to navigate between the vehicles, struck the parked Zuckerman vehicle and rolled over. Irwin and Smith were fatally crushed by the roof.
