Storyline
Bandit and Cledus are two truck-driving southerners who accept a dare from big-shots Big and Little Enos to pick up a truckload of beer from Texas and return it to them within a specified amount of time. Picking it up is simple enough, but as they are leaving Texas, Bandit unwittingly picks up Carrie, a hitchhiking bride-to-be who just left her groom, Junior, at the altar. Junior, however, is the son of Sheriff Buford T. Justice. And when Buford and Junior discover what has happened, they go on a "high-speed pursuit" across the Southeast to catch the bandit.

Continuity: During the 'hiding in the convoy' scene, when Bandit (and later Snowman) pass "Mister B's" tanker truck (the last truck in the convoy, or "back door"), we see that the cab is painted blue. However, when we see a close-up of Mister B talking to Snowman on the CB as he passes the convoy, the cab around him is an orangish-red. See more »Quotes
