Fatiol, who was driving north on the Turnpike in a Honda Accord, told authorities after he was taken into custody that he was trying to change lanes when a white van sped up behind him, preventing him from moving over, an arrest affidavit shows. When he was able to change lanes in front of the van, Fatiol said he thought the driver rear-ended him, so he pulled over and exited his car, leaving the door open.
