Sheriff's detective Jeff Maag told People magazine the driver "was doing well over 45 [mph] [it's] fair to say at least twice that."
That means Maag believes Rodas was going at least 90 mph on a street where the limit was just 45.

The original stories said he was a passenger. Has that story changed?
He was not driving...he was a passenger
Walker wasn’t “even” driving, you got that?! And the posters who dissed you know for certain that he disapproved of the driver driving over the speed limit, clear?!
I haven't and never would.
When you've see the results of what happens when stupid people do really stupid, very dangerous things like that, ya have a tendency not to forget it.
... 'course that was in 2011, but I doubt they raised it since then. News has a life of its own.
Yes, he was a passenger.
I checked the first two stories that came up when I Googled his name; neither mentioned the fact that he was not alone in the car and was not the driver.
When people started to post messages to the effect that he was a passenger, I searched some more. I found information confirming that he was not driving the car on TMZ.
I’m sorry I didn’t check further sooner.

HE GOT IN A CAR WITH AN IDIOT
HIS STREET RACING FILMS ARE A CHALLENGE TO YOUNG MORONS WITH CARS
THEY MADE MONEY - SO WHAT
Suggested title for movie about Toronto Mayor Rob Ford:
The Fat and the Furious.
‘Twas sad what happened to Walker and his friend, but this is what happens when you go absurdly fast. To paraphrase a song by Joe Walsh (Life’s Been Good to Me So Far), My Maserati goes 185. I died in a car crash,
now I can’t drive...
and yes he wasn’t driving. But still...
They say he also died from burns and there is a video of the end as well.
That is nice to know. I’m sure he will be terribly missed.
That said - his passing is no different than anyone's death and why this guy had notoriety at all over some GI speaks to our culture
That’s true. I am amazed my brother is alive too. He has probably broken every bone in his body more than once doing stupid stuff. Like the time he drove a go cart into an empty swimming pool. He survived; but the go cart didn’t.
Some "they"s say it was a drone strike.
Please do feel free to ignore what the coroner who actually examined the body says, in preference to what someone's aunt Martha said after catching part of a low resolution version the video on the interwebs via her smart phone.
Coroner said injury from also the fire. He was not knocked out according to them.
That’s too bad.
I believe it was $250K.
