I haven't seen the show, i don't need to.
They like to bring out statistics to show how safe they are.
As we know, statistics can be manipulated.
What they don't show are near misses. I have seen first hand these near misses.
A car stops in lane one. The following cars all swerve round. This has a knock on effect in the other lanes.
All the cars start to brake meaning any gaps no longer exist.
Some cars seeing that lane one has suddenly become empty, dive for it. Then yep, you've guessed it!
The camera operators just don't act quick enough. They will never be quick enough until cars have onboard computers to automatically warn other cars.
