At 5.20pm on Tuesday, an allegedly intoxicated Kiama Downs man started walking in an easterly direction on Meehan Drive, in the middle of the road.
He stripped down naked exposing himself to pedestrians and vehicles, yelling, screaming and playing chicken with passing vehicles.
A car slowed down almost to a stop and swerved to the side to avoid the man but he moved in front of the car and got hit.
The driver stopped and provided assistance.
At that time it was raining heavily and dark.
Three witnesses, including an off-duty ambulance officer, provided assistance until ambulance and police arrived at the scene.
Investigations are continuing.
Police are appealing to the public to contact Lake Illawarra Police if they have any information that may assist in the investigation.
Contact Lake Illawarra Police Station on 4232 5599, Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or the Police Assistance Line on 131 444.
