Many action movies feature speeding vehicles. Sometimes the good characters are trying to speed away from the baddies, or vice versa. At other times they need to escape an explosion, or even to stop something bad happening on the vehicle itself, like a bomb going off. In doing so, there are often lots of action stunt scenes, some of which are infamous for being highly unlikely or obviously faked.
