Attentiveness and preparation increase safety dramatically. These guys are not driving full out in the middle of traffic.
What's more interesting is that the owner of the Audi previously had an S63 and while helping others on another run, his car was rear-ended by a semi-truck while parked on the shoulder. The driver of the truck was falling asleep due to truck driving regulations being lifted because of covid.
Safe to say that safety isn't that simple. Those trucking rule changes created more damage than the entire Cannonball history.
