We have two model S in the garage with one plug for the charging cable. If the car farthest from the plug is charging, can the other car back over the cable without harming it or affecting the charging? Is it safe to do this?

The cable *should* be OK, and I would worry much more about it pulling on one plug or the other (I think it would do a lot of damage to the car, if it yanked out the plug from the car side).
However, as kort677 noted, I would avoid this as a normal practice as it is going to put un-needed stress on the wires.
Best suggestion would be to move the plug and charger to somewhere between the cars, so it is only going behind the car that is actually charging and would need to unplug anyway.
Second suggestion, make (or buy) a raceway like Wanter noted. you can do it pretty easily if you want with some long pieces of wood (like 2x4) put them far enough apart to put the cable between them, and get some trim for next to them to make getting over them easier, then fasten these to the garage floor so the car cant just push them around.
My neighbor does this. Its pretty slick. If you could put the last 6' of the cord on some sort of track you could move it from one side or the other, thus being available for either car.
You could get a little more complex: unplug when she's about to leave, plug back in after she's left, unplug when she is due to arrive back home, plug her car in when she gets parked again.

I am in the same situation and plan on hanging bungie cords from the garage door rails and then draping the charge cable over the first car under the garage door rails and over to the 2nd car. first car should be able to drive under the cable and the cable will be out of the way of the garage door path.
