Urban Legends | |
| Black Dog / int_12e0bb9 | comment |
Urban Legends: The legend of the black dog in this film is that it comes for truckers who have been pushing too hard. Jack says his encounter with the dog caused him to unintentionally crash into a car, causing him to be put in prison for manslaughter. | |

Magic Brakes | |
| Black Dog / int_48f977b0 | comment |
Magic Brakes: Attention to detail on how trucks work is the film's main virtue. When a bad guy on a bike jumps onto the deckplate in-motion, and pulls off the connectors to the trailer, the protection valve on the dash of the tractor pops immediately, and Jack must get them re-connected before the air tank runs low and the brakes set. | |

Jurisdiction Friction | |
| Black Dog / int_c2676b00 | comment |
Jurisdiction Friction: A fair deal of the conflict comes from the FBI agent and the ATF agent over who has jurisdiction in their investigation of a gun-smuggling operation.note In Real Life, it's the ATF, unequivocally. The FBI has no jurisdiction in gun-smuggling cases. | |
