Continuity mistake: During the traffic jam scene, when the truck crashes against the taxi, the view inside McClane's car shows the taxi colliding against the car, dragging it away violently. From the aerial angle, the taxi doesn't touch McClane's car at all. (00:22:35)

Continuity mistake: When McClane and Farrell are fired upon during the escort to DHS, Agent Johnson is killed and slumps against the steering wheel, and in the next shot the deceased's foot slips off the brake so the car jolts forward and hits the FBI's SUV in front of them. Four shots later, in the interior shot from the back seat directly behind McClane ducking inside the car, we see Agent Johnson sitting upright very much alive, at the left side of the screen.

Continuity mistake: In the traffic jam in the beginning of the film (right after all the lights have changed to green), the car next to McClane's is black/dark. But a few seconds later when you see it from a helicopter, it has changed to white. (00:22:30 - 00:23:30)
