Trivia
Gibbs' rule no. 27: There are 2 ways to follow - 1st way they never notice you, 2nd way they only notice you.

Goofs
The driver of the truck being hijacked slams on his brakes at the last second when the road is blocked, this is not how a experienced, professional truck driver would stop; as shown this jack-knifes the trailer which can tip the truck over. He had plenty of time to see the road was blocked, loaded semi trucks use downshifting their transmissions to slow down almost as much as their brakes; in this situation an experienced truck driver would have started downshifting to slow down plus applying brake pressure, he wouldn't slam them on at the last second, that is only done as a last resort. If semi-trucks rely just on their brakes they take longer to stop, plus it wears the brakes out much faster considering how much weight they carry.

Quotes
Senior FBI Agent T.C. Fornell: This really is a big deal for you isn't it? Letting me drive your car.
Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: Whatever. You already slept with my wife.
