Continuity mistake: When Jon Baker wakes up, the on screen caption says "8.26 AM." Then Jon staggers his way to the bathroom, passing in front of the clock which shows 8:05. (00:01:00)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: When Ponch shakes Ray's hand the first day, Ray has his left arm in a rather awkward position across his own chest, suddenly fixed at the cut. (00:23:50)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: When John takes off to chase the Ferrari, in the background Ponch turns on his red and blue lights. In a close up the lights then aren't on, then in a wide shot they are again.

Continuity mistake: When they go to the house of the pilot who jumped out of the helicopter, as they pull up on the motorcycles at the house, he loops around to back up and park, and they park close to the driveway entrance. In the next shot of the motorcycles parked, they are nowhere near the entrance.

Continuity mistake: When Jon is identifying the type of motorcycle that's in the video his partner asks him about, Jon is putting on his helmet. When the camera cuts to the other side of Jon after his partner asks "How could you know? You haven't seen it", Jon's hands are in a different position. (00:29:35)

Other mistake: During the high speed motorcycle chase the helicopter pilot gauges the motorcycle's speed at 150mph. When the motorcycles go under the overpass they disappear by apparently making a 90 degree turn. That maneuver would be impossible at that speed with such a short distance to slow down in.

Factual error: When the motorhome gets T-boned, it breaks clean in half. The motorhome would have a heavy steel frame that would bend but not break, so the frame was obviously cut for dramatic effect during the stunt.
