In the driving scene, the hazard lights are on (look at the dash), possibly indicating that it was towed by another car for the driving scenes. "Harsh Times" (2005) did this for driving scenes, in which the protagonist's car, a Ford Crown Vic, was towed. In that movie, they went through several Crown Vics, due to malfunctions. -- Last edit: 2013-05-27 06:30:54
