Basically, yes, although they seem to rely on extreme speed to escape the average traffic cop.
I believe current regulations do not, unfortunately, allow an instant driving ban on holders of foreign driving licences, so even when caught they were often released and allowed to drive to the next border.
Nor do we have on-the-spot collection of fines here.
There was also some criticism of the companies claimed to have sponsored the event - at least one large computer company denying any involvement.
The event got some coverage on the TV news here in Sweden (a few months ago).
