One doctor tells the other that she's "salvageable."


* BlatantLies: A couple of doctors are discussing the condition of Max's wife, not realising he's listening outside the door. After citing a long list of serious injuries, they decide to tell Max that he shouldn't worry as she's going to be all right.



** During the opening chase, [[TheVoice off-screen female dispatcher]] can be heard reprimanding Sarse for *requesting* a roadblock, claiming that "we must not compromise territorial range".



* UsedFuture: Most of the vehicles and props are pretty obviously second-hand or donations, and in-universe, it takes place during Peak Oil, and in the middle of the Australian outback at that, so despite technically being in the future (presumably somewhere around the late 80's), people are going to have to stretch their resources as much as possible.

* TheVoice: The female police dispatcher. Those with a keen ear can hear that she is broadcasting [[WorldBuilding insights into the movie's verse]], such as the slang "Bronze" for MFP officers is discouraged by the MFP itself and it's stated that Max's use of the [[CoolCar Pursuit Special]] is unauthorized and that he may be a threat.
