I agree they can do some quite complex modeling to figure out speed but it
just seem awfully convenient that (they say) he was doing 35 in a 35
limit.

I just wonder what his speed would have been reported at if the accident
had happened in....oh....say....Seattle :)

I'm no expert, but just like they gauge the strength of a tornado by the
damage it makes I think they can estimate vehicle speed by the damage they
make.

Say for instance I drive my car into a concrete wall at 50MPH.  If no one
saw it or radared my speed, I'll bet they can get a pretty damn close
estimate on my speed based on damage to my car and the wall through some
sort of mathematical calculation.

Then again I could be wrong in this thinking.

" Roethlisberger was traveling 35 mph in a posted 35 mph zone, said
officer Dan Connolly."

Really...

And how exactly do they know that then - seems awfully convenient.  If
they know for sure then great (and tell us how) but if they DON'T know
then say so...

I smell BS.
