Very lucky to get out of that without injuries. Agree that road is OK to drive if you take care. Used to live up the other side at Berrilee. Ferry was always fun.
Another one with steep hairpins is Galston Gorge.2007 NS R shortie, smartbar, Bushskinz intercooler & sump guard, Bridgestone AT Duelers
I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days attack me at once.

If I was able to negotiate a Toyota Coaster bus around those bends on a wet drizzly day with on-coming traffic, then what's so hard about keeping a Prada on the bitumen?Steve

I used this road many many years ago normally towing a boat, a shortcut from the western surburbs to the Sydney - Newcastle freeway.
Even in the 80's this road has taken many a unwary driver, the issue is slow down and hopefully all will be good.
Motorbikes loved this bit of road and it was not uncommon to come across them hooning.NX 2016 GLS, Graphite, Nudge Bar, Pirelli Scorpion Plus.

I'm willing to bet there wouldn't be as much cabin intrusion if he had a cargo barrier, plus it would limit the amount of items flying around inside on a drop like that!2013 MY14 Pajero GLX-R | 265/70R17 General Grabber AT2, ARB Deluxe Bar with Lightforce XGT HID's, 144w CREE Lightbar, Hayman Reese Towpack, TJM Dual Battery Tray, Traxide USI-160, Engel 42L, Alinco DR-620 VHF/UHF|

Yep. Definitely the Prado at fault for leaving the road. News report states it happened at 9pm. So Prado driver had the added warning of another vehicle approaching due to headlights. If indeed there was another vehicle. With a large, bright white, reinforced bullbar up front it's more the wonder the "other" vehicle didn't run off the road to avoid the threat.99 NL Escape 3.5L V6 LWB Wagon, "Aisin Auto", MM Alum Protector Bar, MM factory 'steel' underbody protector plates, Engine oil cooler, Transmission oil cooler, Side rails, Flares, MM Alloy wheels, HANKOOK Dynapro ATM LT tyres, Aftermarket Alarm, MM A.I.S.
