He was at the top of a hill, going 30, and then "bounced and rolled." It's very plausible that he was tossed a short distance but ended up rolling down the hill, resulting in him being 300 feet from the initial crash site. It doesn't mean he literally ended up sailing 300 feet through the air before coming to the ground.
Not to mention that he hit the curb in a residential area, meaning he didn't go sliding down just asphalt. He likely rolled mostly through some lawns or some grassy areas as it said he ended up in a ditch.
Think things through, and it's very possible that this is an legit story/injury.
