About 2 miles from my parents place. Dad was just talking to me about it on the phone. I know the stretch of road well and it is a 40mph area on a bend down from 70mph dual carriageway.

The house it crashed into is actually on the inside of the bend so it would have gone accross the road. Dad also said there is 100 metre green in front of the house and at the end of that, it hit an embankment and got airborne. Must have had a massive speed to carry it that far and airborne at the end.
