Police officer Jose Mendes said that the driver was tested for traces of alcohol and drugs but was free of either.
Witness Jim McGrath, from Dublin, did not see the collision happen, but saw the Mercedes beforehand and arrived at the crash scene seconds after the impact.
The 60-year-old estimated the speed of the Mercedes prior to the crash to be between 100 and 120km per hour – approximately 62 to 75mph.
The coroner recorded an open verdict.
