20 Things You Probably Missed In Speed
16. The Secret Meaning Of Jack's License Plate
Here's one for anyone that speaks Hindi, but will be totally lost on everybody else.
When Jack gets in his Ford Bronco and attempts to chase down the endangered bus, note that his license plate reads "646 TEZ."
Curiously, "tez" is also the Hindi word for "quick," or doing something with great speed, which in addition to being the movie's title is of course a perfect description of what Jack is doing in that very moment as he attempts to track the bus.
No word on why this rather left-field bit of wordplay made it into the film, but a cool find nonetheless.
