I wonder if the cars also have some sort of mesh (LoRaWAN?) network to help each other out in temporary dead zones, emergencies, etc.

Bandwidth is problematic for mesh. A remote assistance situation would involve at least 4 high definition camera streams, and ideally with minimal latency. It's challenging to put that much data onto public spectrum even if you wanted to make a custom radio.
I was thinking more for communicating the “mass disruption in progress” message - or even just distributing the manually verified “traffic lights down” data between vehicles.
