Wow! They did a similar thing as those students as an experiment here in Germany once. However, they used only one car, to see how the other people would react if someone would adhere to the speed limit exactly. Especially when they got to a part of the Autobahn that only had two lanes (one regular one, and one for passing), they got a lot of evil looks, and angry honking from the other drivers.
But *this* tops that experiment. The experiment merely showed that you need a little flexibility above the actual speed limit (only to a certain degree, of course), to retain the sanity of all people involved. But this little movie leaves a great impact, showing to what ends people will go if their nerves are slowly ground down by being forced to drive so slow. And the scene where this wall of cars appeared makes a serious statement.
