Sadly, the driver and sole occupant was found dead inside that vehicle, which was flipped upside down with a suitcase inside.
The person has since been taken away from the scene by authorities but it's understood they had been reported missing by their loved ones.
It's took emergency services a number of hours to winch the car back up to the road so police can begin examining it.
There will be a thorough investigation into exactly what may have caused this tragic crash.
