What a pity the film couldn’t be about 10 minutes longer. That way it could rely less on voiceovers and dialogue and spend some time building things up.

All this would have taken is having the lanes separate and one cross over the other; problem solved, with zero additional collision risk (and it works in both directions) =) .
Mathematical elegance isn’t necessarily useful in the real-world.
If you’re lucky, Persephone Hazard turns up and shoots you. If you’re unlucky, that nice Mr Howard from the Laundry eats your soul. If you’re really unlucky, the Sleeper will come and introduce you to one of its mind-control parasites.
