Although it mentions that the car was travelling at 65 mph through the tunnel, that's really not that unusual. I had a chance to see the tunnel when I was in Paris and I'm here to tell you, they drive like the devil through that tunnel. There's a narrow sidewalk where you can walk to see inside the tunnel and I was half afraid to do even that what with the speed of the cars on the other side of me.
Here's a really good photo of it. If you look directly above the tunnel entrance, you can see a replica of the Statue of Liberty torch, which is a makeshift memorial to Diana:
Interesting thought, fren. I remember seeing photos of him right after the crash. He was pretty cut up, with lots of stitches:

Which reminds me...Diana had a reputation for being a stickler about using seat belts. Strangely, she wasn't wearing one the night of the crash.
Oh, and there was one other oddity about the crash. The car hit the 13th pillar in the tunnel. Hmmm.....

Here's a map from the Ritz Hotel, where they started out, to the tunnel:
