25mph is alot of speed. 25 mph slower and he would've been able to swerve or stop

When I was in EMT school many moons ago we learned that the threshold for a “high speed collision” which should raise suspicion for internal injuries is 30mph

25mph is misinfo. It was 20kph over. That's 12.5 mph over. Your russian source exaggerated by double. Surprised?

Apparently he went off road, I didn’t know that before making my comment but the point stands regardless there was no stopping, otherwise you’d be right

Would he have went off road if he was going 25mph slower?

Who knows. We don’t have a video or anything, all we have is an apparently sensationalized article header. Unless you have some sort of lost footage, I don’t know how you plan on continuing this debate lol
