Traffic Can Spawn In Random (Nonsensical) Locations During Online Races

Product: Need for Speed: Unbound
Platform:PlayStation 5
Summarize your bug Traffic should stay on the road or be parked. Sometimes traffic cars just spawn in an un-explainable manner. E.g. a truck being across several lanes on the road. This issue seems to be exclusive to the online mode. This might have the same root cause as the issue I've reported earlier: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/Traffic-Behaves-Erratically-After-Being-Hit-By-Online-Opponents/m-p/12136567
How often does the bug occur? Rarely (0% - 9%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Play online races
What happens when the bug occurs? Traffic cars spawn in nonsensical locations
What do you expect to see? Traffic stays on the road.

Here is a video demonstration: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GsHJkhyZyh8

Notice how there was first car being close to the wall and then the obvious truck. These cars couldn't have been hit by online opponents since I was leading the entire race.

    Oh yes, I agree with you. I've crashed before, in online races, on the open road and without obstacles, you drive and you crash for no reason whatsoever. and it's annoying when you were in the lead online and then you're behind. I also play PS5
