BOF Posted June 4, 2019 Moderator Share Posted June 4, 2019 So Reyes was travelling at 147mph on a 75mph road when he got a puncture. Dickhead killed his cousin, has another one in a stable condition and put other lives at risk. Quote According to Spanish daily newspaper Mundo Deportivo, the Guardia Civil's accident report into the crash which killed footballer José Antonio Reyes shows that his Mercedes Brabus S550V was travelling at 237 km/h (147 mph) when it left the road, hit a number of concrete blocks, flipped over and burst into flames. The speed limit on the section of the A-376 motorway, near Alcalá de Guadaira, where the accident happened is 120 km/h. On Tuesday, the head of Spain's Directorate-General for Traffic, Pere Navarro, confirmed that excess speed was the cause of the accident although he declined to confirm the exact speed the car was doing at the time of the accident as the investigation is on-going.
