- From CHiPs Online:
In the first act, Jon is talking with James O'Hara as Baricza shows up in his cruiser. When returning from commercial, we see the same scenes again and Baricza arrives a second time.
The car that O'Hara the midget is driving is a Lincoln. However, when the close-up of him in the car itself shows him speeding down the freeway, the steering wheel and the speedometer/driver dashboard displayed is that of a 1979 Cadillac.
Driving down a narrow alley into a delivery dock, the Preacher covers his eyes after spouting a bible quote. With nowhere to turn and the police hot on their tail, he manages to get totally turned around before being pulled over.
