You have 4 smashed cars and a smashed lorry. Thats still only 4 cars. Maybe they used the title wich was released with the video and since it was published by the police… :D

Fifth car is possibly in the opposite lane, one of the cars hit was pushed to the right.

So I only counted 4 cars in the video, but even if it was only 1 car or 10, that’s still some scary stuff!

One of the oncoming cars may have been damaged by debris, but he still didn’t directly hit it.
