That brought back some old memories as i did a very similar thing years ago in my monaro, coming into a bend where they we upgrading a bridge a little to hot ( and no abs back then ) i slide straight of and down a 30 foot ebmakment that had just been dozed out for the bridge, landed with the nose pointing straight down on 35 d angle.

not fun but i suppose laugh about it now, but wasnt happy with the damage to the underside after i floored it in reverse to get it out of the ditch.

The driver was very lucky to not be a LOT worse off... Can you imagine trying to explain THAT to your insurance company? :hihi:
