Regarding the health check of the Dodge vehicle, it is detailed: "The vehicle was inspected on 02.10.23 at 17:35 - the vehicle was inspected while driving from the town station from Shoket Junction to the entrance to Hura and back to the town station.  The inspection found that the steering wheel was in good condition, the brakes were in good condition, the tires were full of air (it should be noted that the right rear wheel was replaced with a spare wheel because it was found in the right rear wheel evidence of blood that may belong to the deceased)...  During the test, I performed two emergency braking tests at speeds of 70 km/h and 50 km/h and it was found that the vehicle left two braking marks on the road in both tests...  On October 9,2023, another vehicle ride was made at the scene of the accident and on Yatir Road, the vehicle was found to be in good condition, the trip was made at a speed exceeding 100 km/h."

In the findings section and their meaning: "Blood stains were found on the road along the street, with the first stain starting 2.4 meters before the start of the bumper in the direction of the vehicle's travel, which is 11 meters before the pedestrian's position according to the eyewitness point, which shortens the vehicle's distance from the pedestrian by 11 meters, 11-29 meters = 18 meters.  It should be noted that this does not indicate (sic) the field of vision, because in this situation the driver would have seen the pedestrian before entering the right turn." In the braking signs section: "No braking marks were found from the vehicle at the scene of the accident on the day of the incident...  "

The conclusions section is detailed:

"

  1. The location of the injury to the pedestrian is in the area of the bumper and not in front of the pedestrian's house, which strengthens the testimony of the eyewitness Jaudat.
  2. If the vehicle had an emergency braking brake, it would have left brake marks on the road.
  3. On the front of the right side of the vehicle, on the hood at a distance of 0.66 meters from the right side, there is a round tin damage suitable for injury to the pedestrian, while the location of the injury to the vehicle corresponds to the eyewitness version of Goudet.
  4. ...
  5. In a car test on the matter of how fast the vehicle can turn right at an intersection, it was found that when driving wildly, the vehicle turned right at a speed of 40 to 50 km/h. 

The stopping distance of the vehicle at a speed of 40 km/h (11.11 m/h) is the braking distance: 40 x 40 / 0.6 * 254 = 10.5 meters.
