During the pursuit of the 211 Camaro, two vehicles crash into the rear of and go over the top of a Pontiac on a section of freeway with trees in the median between the lanes.

This indicates the vehicles were staged on the other side of the road and filmed on different parts of the freeway.
The same Pontiac from the earlier Camaro pursuit crash is again rear-ended during the yellow Mazda pursuit, indicating the car was recycled for that scene.
