   After 10 years since the crash it suddenly occurred to me how precise the   
   crash was. Accidents should be messy but in the confines of the tunnel to   
   hit a pillar, let alone the 13th one in line, needed a precise maneuver. I   
   have always been sceptical of the geometary. It's the narrow width of the   
   tunnel where precision was required. The scepticism over the geometry   
   [whether it was indeed possible or not] could be answered by the precision   
   of the driver. Where to be in the tunnel, when to steer of course, and how   
   much speed could be applied were all things within the knowledge of the   
   driver. The Merc was almost center when it hit the pillar [slightly off to   
   the left] and that would be depend on the driver.   
      
   An accident might have sent the car through the pillars. The front near side   
   or off side might have hit the pillar and started a spin all over the place   
   and the Merc might have ended up smashed up on all sides. Yet the damage was   
   limited to the front.   
      
   Yes, it was very precise. Did the driver just aim for the pillar. He did   
   have a cocktail of drugs in his blood stream one of which should not have   
   been prescribed to him. He was allegedly, taking a drug to ease alcoholism   
   and we all know that alcohol should not be taken with drugs. If he was off   
   alcohol then there was still a risk in prescribing the other drug he   
   allegedly was taking.
