I meant I assumed that's what his father meant by saying he went "back" towards the town, not that he actually went that way.As someone who has rolled my car down an embankment I wouldn't assume he walked back in the direction he came from. I know that I was extremely confused after I got out of the car. And he spun out, and a road has 2 directions... the one you came from and the one where you were headed. After spinning out, and it was supposed to have been quite dark out without any lights, I don't know that he could have easily figured out which way was which, IMHO.
I think he was basing his statement on what he learned from the investigation and that search dogs tracked his scent about 1/4 mile down the road, then lost it. Imo
