  1. The car enters the scene and there was 7-8 frames before it hit the house. Typical security camera is set to 24 – 30 frames per second. This would mean .25 to .31 seconds to cover width of 36 ' lot. If we take the low rate, it was going 75 mph, if we take the high rate it was going 95 mph.

  2. Overall the remains of vehicle and dossier of the driver should be by vetted, this doesn't look like some escape vehicle from the law or Cannonball Run but more of a Chicken Run from John Steed-Emma Peel-Cathy Gale Avengers (ABC-ITV)

  3. I read it was an elderly woman driver. Maybe she had a medical emergency, passed out or even died moments before going airborne. Her car hit something out of frame that sent her airborne. Incredible footage.

  4. If the road wasn't designed in the standard "drag strip" style pervasive in North America, it would've been impossible to reach anywhere near this speed before negotiating a curve or hitting a tree.

  5. Snooping around on Google Maps, the car was traveling southwest on Kingston Dr. The road is straight as an arrow for 3/4 mile before the curve this group of homes lies on. Total drag strip. Clowns design our cities.

  6. From the porch of the first house to the corner of the 2nd house is 39 feet. Car took 5 frames from the time it hit the porch to hit the second house which gives is an average speed of 160 mph between the 2 houses. Also the only angle that lets the car hit the porch but miss the rest of the house and then embed itself in the 2nd house the car had to have hit the curb of a side street, and fly inbetween trees for 100 feet (decelerating the whole time cause its in the air) before it hits the porch at 160.
