Requesting the Edgar Wright cornetto trilogy early for this year’s Halloween line up! His films are so good! If you like how this film and Scott pilgrim were filmed you’ll love the trilogy🎃🤘🏻

All of them. Every time two cars crash into each other, or into a stationary object, and the people either keep driving like nothing happened or get out of their car and proceed to run without injury to carjack another vehicle.
Even "small" vehicle collisions have a chance of serious injury, and with how many there are in this film the odds that no one broke bones or suffered tissue damage or nerve damage is implausible to the point of impossible. For an example from my own personal life, about ten years ago I was rear-ended, and even though we were just past a stoplight so everybody was going slow the guy who hit me broke his own arm. If these stunts were "real" the whole crew should have been twisted and limping by the end after all their car chases.
This isn't a criticism of the film, I'm heavily applauding the film for making it all LOOK real. But it's still "fake", and that's fine. I don't want my movies to be real, because that's what real life is for. I just want to be CONVINCED so that I can accept it. And this one pulled that off.

With regards the driving stunts, I think this film encapsulates something that I saw mentioned a few years ago with regards to fantasy films: I don't need it to be "realistic", I need it to be "convincing".
The driving stunts here still aren't "real", but by showing (as you noted) the mechanics of shifting and braking, and by not putting in giant ramp leaps or a dozen different explosions, it convinces you that it COULD be real. It's sold well enough that your mind can accept it, even though it's no more "real" than the big chase at the end of The Blues Brothers.
More films should aim to convince the audience.
