Really? The car rocks in roll instead of yaw, the Δ in closing speed halves. Fineness ratio and Reynolds number work the same.

A big dirty vehicle moving at high speed in a high crosswind might throw a lightweight vehicle into the ditch. I extrapolate from strings of boxcars blown off railroad trestles in high winds.
