 Because the film is set in the United States, a team of contractors were appointed to paint yellow and white dividing lines on the road for it to appear as an American highway.A total of thirty American cars and fifteen American semi-trucks were imported from both England and the United States to be used in the film.The film's production company, the independent United Kingdom distributor Random Harvest, sold the film for distribution to Buena Vista International under their subsidiary Four Horseman Films.
