As I pointed out to Ryan - There's a pic of the car burning and in the middle of the shot is what looks to be a 45mph speed limit sign.
No way that'd happen at 45mph so his friend who was driving appeared to be speeding.
Damn shame, though. I didn't think much of him as an actor but did like him in the F&F films.
Wonder what'll happen to the next film as the filming hadn't finished . . .
