Ryan W. Schmidt was driving east on Furuby Road near Shady Oak Trail when he left the roadway, hit a driveway embankment and rolled several times.
He was the only person in the car and speed appeared to be a factor in the crash, the Sheriff's Office said.
Witnesses to the crash attempted to save Schmidt's life before emergency responders arrived, but he was pronounced dead at the scene.
The Sheriff's Office is investigating the crash along with the Midwest Medical Examiner's Office.
