Thank you justsayin. I wasn't looking for kudos, but thank you nonetheless. My point was to illustrate that it is not hard to extend courtesy by thinking about what one would easily expect where they live and do the same for others. The attached meme is for you.
It is extremely curious as to why we know nothing more about the 27 year old in the Chevy aside from age, initial status as illegal-later hushed, and his claim to be a passenger.
I was discussing this crash with a friend and they pointed out something interesting, though it too is speculation. If the 27 year old is illegal, in light of the recent murders in PWC by the illegal who was to be deported in 2002, it highlights failures by ICE. A double whammy as it were. Again speculation.
My thought is the 27 year old is attached to a diplomatic entourage, and as such may be immune to prosecution, explaining why no charges have been waged.
To those who question estimating speed of vehicles in a crash, several have named possible points that can be used to estimate velocity, but a good forensics investigator knows what to calculate based on a myriad of factors.
I googled a phrase and found the following on a defense website. It is pretty well explained in detail for the curious. Keep in mind it is written in a critical view of how an examiner can bungle it.
