There is very little that can stop a semi-truck at highway speeds

We have those in America too, we call them runaway ramps
Yes, I’m not sure if the truck finds the stop so gentle but the driver (and surrounding traffic) at least is able to walk away if their brakes fail.
We have those in the US as well but the are filled with gravel I believe so the truck an get stuck in it to slow down even more but only in mountain areas do we have them.
to be fair, i do believe swizerland is entirely mountain areas
