Plot hole: Near the end of the opening chase, the caravan and the pick up truck are completely blocking the road, making it impossible for the Night Rider to pass the way we see him do.
Mad Max (1979)
2 plot holes - chronological order
Directed by: George Miller
Starring: Mel Gibson, Hugh Keays-Byrne, Joanne Samuel, Steve Bisley
Continuity mistake: When Goose crashes his motorbike, he lands on his front. The previous shot shows him falling back-first.
Grease Rat: Like the sign says, "speed's just a question of money. How fast you wanna go?"
Trivia: Due to budget constraints, the only real leather costume was Mel Gibson's.
Question: Whatever happened to the 2 cops from the beginning that were in the March hare pursuit vehicle? We never see them again after the beginning. Did they die when their car overturned or what?
