Humans are not designed to drive at such speeds, we've been trying to correct this for decades, and still same problem, plus, we end up with horrible and empty cities. Time to switch to safer vehicles.

It's a very popular genre.
It amuses me that future humans are going to watch these videos in amazement at how medieval and barbaric driving of cars was!
Driving cars like we do is totally bonkers. Barreling down the freeways at ~100kmh with only friction brakes, our reactions and the fear of mutually assured destruction to stop of us crashing into each other.
It's absolute madness.
We have expended tremendous resources in making cars safer whilst never admitting that we cannot fix the real problem. Which is that humans are terrible at driving safely. We have dreadful reactions and a mass delusion that we are in full-control of the vehicle at speed!
It's astounding that we're completely apathetic to driving at high speeds in opposite directions with clearance of meters at best. You simply put your life in the hands of hundreds of random people you pass every trip, hoping that they (intentionally or due to any tiredness, distraction or medical emergency) don't swerve in the slightest to your side and kill both of you instantly.
