The Wolf of Snow Hollow picture

Continuity mistake: Officer Robson is driving John in a police car. They get to where John exits the car. While they are talking inside the car John is taking a box containing among other things a bag that says evidence on it. The camera angle changes and 3 things are obviously wrong. 1. John exits the driver's side when he was in the passenger's seat. 2. He exits a Ford F150 pickup, not the police car as seen driving down the road earlier. 3. He doesn't exit with a box but a plastic bag and papers. (01:05:48)
