But things would have to be JUST right for it to clear the berm and drop into the space.
And if that happened, it would not be traveling at a high velocity.
Great! Both stationary AND moving targets! I’d pay for that.
The car would be though.

I pity the poor slob who draws the short straw. He has to schlepp across a highway, then climb a lot of stairs change out the targets. Which look pretty big and clumsy.

Generally Swiss ranges are electronic, so the shooter would just see a screen with shot placement. No need for going down there unless you’re a maintenance guy.
Yeah, for a lot of those ranges there’s a sound-mitigating tube you shoot through, so you lay down on the carpeted shooting platform and shoot prone, or you can lift up the front part of the platform and can shoot kneeling.

Imagine changing a flat tire, on that section of road!

View ends well short of the range.
Maybe they shot the camera mast off the Google car

A knuckle-balling 7.62 through your side window ain't nothin' to sneeze at.
You would still have to have a very slow round to arc over the berm into the traffic.
We already have that. US40 where it runs through west Baltimore.
In northern germany, there is a town located between two military training reservations. They do indirect artillery fire from one to the other using inert training rounds. In 100 years of doing this, they planted a few of those into the middle of town

They do that between Aberdeen and Edgewood. Not over a town, but the Bush River.
I did some flying over Edgewood, and AMAZING number of perfectly circular ponds.
BTW, they don't fire only inert rounds.
