Show generally

Revealing mistake: Bo and Luke Duke's car the "general Lee" usually has no glass in the side windows due the doors being welded shut as per NASCAR regulations which is why they climb through the windows to enter and leave the car, but when the general is doing one of its many jumps, in the long shots there is glass in the side windows.

Season 5 generally

Factual error: Throughout this entire season, Bo and Luke left Hazzard to become Nascar drivers. This wouldn't be allowed as part of their probation legally prevents them from leaving Hazzard County.

Suggested correction: First off, in s01e01, the show starts where it had already been a year since Bo and Luke were put on probation. However, they were only given 5 years probation and this takes place in season 5. However, in the show they were allowed to leave Hazzard County with permission from a parole officer, so even assuming they're still on probation, they could have had permission without showing it on screen.

Except that Boss Hogg was their parole officer and considering how corrupt he is, he could have chosen to extend their parole.

It would be possible that the Duke boys got the probation lifted by a higher authority (e.g. the State governor), or just ignored Boss Hogg altogether.

One Armed Bandits - S1-E1

Other mistake: When Enos is chasing the boys through the town square, you see the General Lee parked in a parking spot, but the POV is meant to be from the General Lee.

Swamp Molly - S1-E6

Audio problem: In Hogg's office in the Boar's Nest, after Roscoe tells of the activities, Boss goes to put the needle back on the record. Trouble is, the record doesn't move until Boss turns it, but the music started before the record moved.

Movie Nut

Daisy's Song - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: In the close up shots of the General during the junkyard chase, Daisy is sitting between the boys. In the shots from the car being chased, she appears to be in the back seat, looking over Luke's left shoulder.

Sheriff Rosco P. Coltrane: Ya dun scuffed my ve-hicle.
