A man was killed early Saturday when his Mercedes Benz flew off the Jackie Robinson Parkway in Queens, striking an emergency call box and a tree, police said.
The victim, a man in his 30s, was ejected from his luxury car following the blistering 6:30 a.m. crash, cops said.
The Mercedes Benz was traveling west along the curvy, rain and snow-swept highway running through Forest Park, Queens, when he lost control of the wheel and slammed into the emergency call box along the shoulder, cops said.
He then veered off into a patch of woods and rammed into a tree, police said.
First responders found the victim sprawled out on the ground outside the car.
The victim died at the scene, authorities said. Cops were trying to identify him Saturday.
