Bruce Willis takes a semi truck to follow the terrorists back to some lair....he makes a turn, then rides down a street for a few seconds.

I had to stop the movie and rewind it because the street looked so familiar.

The scene edited in is right up the street from my house, the street runs under the Ronald Reagan freeway, next to the Golden State freeway.

So, BW travels from New York to the San Fernando Valley, back to NY in about 30 seconds?
In the movie "About Last Night", some of which was filmed in Chicago - the characters are up in Wrigleyville, and then a short bike ride later they're at Grant Park for a softball game. You can't get from Wrigleyville to Grant Park by bicycle in five minutes! In "Ferris Bueller's Day Off", on the other hand, the kids drive the Ferrari from the North Shore to the Loop via Lake Shore Drive, which is totally plausible.
