Factual error: Treadway used his rear tire to fling a standard sized brick into the path of the police car chasing him. The brick (which weighs between 4.5 - 6 #) not only broke through the police car's windshield, it proceeded to break through the rear window, plus apparently gained enough speed and upward curve to break through the next police car's windshield. A brick flung at an upward curve would not break through a windshield and take a linear path through the car and break the rear window, etc. (00:04:18)

Character mistake: Evan's response to "What's gunpowder made of?" was "74% potassium nitrate, 13% charcoal." A "smart man" who "knows everything" should realise that the two total 87% and there's a third ingredient (surfur) needed to comprise the remaining 13%. Gunpowder does not have a single "recipe", so the % of the 3 ingredients can vary. Generally, 75% potassium nitrate (or "salt peter"), 15% charcoal, and 10% sulfur may translate to 74.8%/13.3%/11.9% respectively. The 74.8% should be rounded up, not down? (00:14:00)
