"crashed into a palm tree"

 

Looks like wrapped around a palm tree?

 

How fast do you need to go to bend an Altis to what appears to be a +45% angle?

It's always sad and  disheartening to see young people losing their lives in such way, but I'm sure that speed, alcohol or not paying attention will found the be the cause of this accident.

The female was the driver.

They didn't want to die at the battlefield, but ironically they died at the resort city in Thailand. They thought they were safe over there. It would have been better for them if they stayed in Russia. Many Muslim people believe, if you are destined to die, you will die anyway, regardless of how ever you are struggling to avoid the sudden death.

 

RIP, young souls.

Probably safe to assume accident wasn't caused by faulty brakes....
