Define what you mean with "abrupt stop."
The fact it was fatal to the occupants and the CGT moved that wall several feet leads me to conclude it was very abrupt stop.
Think about it, if you are going 150+ and only glance off of the barrier 15 feet then it was very abrupt stop with most of the energy going into the wall. If it had been a glancing blow the car would have traveled several hundred feet down the wall.
We are having a Vigil tomorrow at Crystal Cove starting at 7:00 AM if you would
like to attend.
