    This is in a 20 km/h (18.6 mph) zone. Those barriers are about 5 meters long, and the SUV is about an extra meter down it at the front. For even a heavy vehicle like this Durango to skid about 6 meters, 20 feet, with all four tires off of the road, they would have to be going fairly significantly above that speed. They're also closer to being in the oncoming lane of traffic than in their own.
