Most scripting languages are interpreted, not compiled. It’s not a criticism of them, but it is a tradeoff that is good to understand.

This just isn’t true. If you’re going a safe speed for the conditions, then you will have time to stop even if the person in front of you abruptly stops. Lots of people have to be following too closely (for the conditions) and/or going too quickly (for the conditions), for this to happen.
