Other mistake: When they encounter the first ant, the policeman runs out of ammo, but the FBI agent fires at least nine shots. Not bad for a snubnose revolver that holds 5 or 6 rounds.

Question: What was the purpose of the bag on the hood ornament of the police car in the beginning of the movie?
Answer: The bag is "spare" radiator water for when you're in the desert.
Answer: You fill the canvas bag with water, put it somewhere where the air can blow through, and the evaporation of the water seeping through the canvas creates cool water inside.
