    This is the actual scene.

    The overgrowth would have been visible ahead of the bridge, even in rain. I wonder if any dashcam was on board and if speed was also a factor.

      He wasn’t found until the next morning, so that’s not a great indicator of what it would have looked like as he was driving. A few comments up is a picture showing the approach he came from is not nearly as overgrown, also.

        The photo showing the actual vehicle in the water clearly shows overgrowth from the day the accident happened. He would have to have driven through it.

        It’s odd that he was found so late, TBH.
