not sure what the speeds these cars were traveling at but assuming this is regular highway speed is slow reaction time really a good excuse?

aren't you supposed to have a wide enough space between you and the car in front of you? to compensate for any slowness in reaction.

If it's any indication, you can read 113 km/h on the dashcam overlay. Besides, the Opel Corsa, at least for the few seconds before the crash, seems to roughly maintain the same distance from the Tesla, so it should be travelling at a very similar speed...
