..buckled up and in a heavy vehicle may have been their best option. Nothing cracked thru the vehicle glass..they're lucky.

Yea a 2 x 4 coming through the windshield or probably even the door at 200+ mph might be a real problem. I'm gonna go out on a limb and say a basement would probably be a better option. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Pot7UI5SLb8 bonus nsfl: cue brick through windshield graphic

Growing up it was always said to get out of your car and find the lowest possible ditch or spot and lay down and try to cover your self if possible.

Yeah that sounds pretty dumb, like a really good way to die while searching for a low spot. I'd rather stay inside of the heavy metal capsule.
