Continuity: When Gosling crashes into Nino's cars a few times, the front end of his car is noticeably damaged. However, in the subsequent shots, the car is perfectly fine. Even the front headlights are implausibly intact and working despite just T-boning Nino's car.

Continuity: When the 300C crashes, you can see what appears to be a camera on the shelf. But even if it isn't a camera, it wasn't there a minute ago.

Continuity: In this scene Ryan Gosling walks by a black mustang, you will see that his gloves are on his hands. In the shot, when he tries to break into the car, you still see his gloves on. But then moments later in the shot from his left, the gloves disappeared from his hands into his right back pocket. Though when you see him drive away, the gloves are back on his hands.

Deliberate "mistake": After pulling the e-brake in his car (Mustang) and turning completely around during a chase scene, "Driver's" vehicle continues to shift gears as he drives in reverse at high speeds.

Continuity: The first time Driver is taking Irene and Benicio home from the shop, Driver looks at her and asks her if she wants to see something. When he asks her, he is looking right at her. But the next shot, when she answers him, he is looking at the road.

Factual error: During the pre-credits sequence, when the Driver is attempting to escape the police, the sound of the engine accelerates with the rhythm of a manual transmission while the model on the screen has an automatic transmission.
