Ten buses were used in the the film. Each had 2 steering wheels: 1 for Sandra Bullock, and 1 for the stunt driver.

Tarantino was offered the chance to direct, but he turned it down. He later named it one of his favorite films since 1992.

Keanu Reeves and Jeff Daniels trained with real S.W.A.T. personnel to perfect their movements.

This scene wasn't in the original script! The Director got the idea one day when he noticed a section of the I-105 missing.

Sandra Bullock actually learned to drive a bus for the film, passing her test on the first attempt.
