Braking time is about 4 seconds from 40 mph (average braking acceleration is a bit under half a gee for ordinary cars), which means every second of braking is a roughly 10 mph reduction in speed.
I've also read that the last speed sign was 45mph before this accident. I used 40mph as it was between the 35mph sign that was coming up before the hit and the 45mph one before it.
