I'm watching live news right now. It looks very bad, I'm afraid. For the aircraft to cross the road and enter the TAM cargo reception depot it must have been going at a hell of a clip. The road is about 80m wide and, at that point, some 10m below the surface of the runway. Very close to the same point a BRA 737 skidded to some six months ago.
