There are lots of things that can be run over by a car. Grass for instance. Sand. And so on. The property 'able to survive being run over by a car' only starts to have value when it is coupled with other desirable properties. Jelly doesn't normally have many of those. There must be a better way to describe material properties besides being able to be run over by a car. It's a bit like picking something that sounds impressive but without context it is next to meaningless.

The article goes into some more detail that describes the material properties a lot better than this, and I think the article would improve if the title claim would be left out of it. It is just a click bait thing that doesn't convey any useful information.
