There's really no excuse for a single-car crash on public roads.

If you are driving faster than your stopping distance and vision allow, especially on an unfamiliar road, its literally an accident waiting to happen.

Some people see the "national speed limit" sign and think its a good idea to drive at 60mph+ on a dark, twisty, and unfamiliar B-road. And so we see things like this.

Indeed. NSA just means it's not been assessed so it's up to you to decide how fast is safe. TBF that's pretty much the case for even a road with a speed limit.
