I am thinnking the driver is in deep, the ground looks no where near 40 degrees in angle, meaning he was going way faster than 75km/h.

Mate I'm sytill trying to figure out where this so called proffesor got his figures from (his qualifications are another story).

Do you know how long 35 metres is, that's around the width of 3 average sized blocks of suburban bliss, at 75km/h he'd be lucky to go 10 metres, taking into account rates of decelleration due to the incline alone he would have dropped around 10-15 km/h.

I have a feeling he forgot a 1 in front of the the 75. :

Now if that was in Australia you could see the police officer standing at the front saying "police are investigating if speed was a factor in this accident" lol

lol- Hand of god, I think

It reminds me of old AAMI ad where the bloke dodged a Kangaroo in a EB Falcon and drove off a cliff and crashed through the roof of a blokes house.
