What's that movie about a bus that had to speed around a city, keeping its speed over 50, and if its speed changed, it would explode? I think it was called The Bus That Couldn't Slow Down.

I vaguely remember this type of scenario in The Vanishing with Kiefer Sutherland & Jeff Bridges.

I'm pretty sure Marty's got it right. That sounds exactly like Breakdown.

No, no, no, you're all wrong. It is, quite obviously, Breakdown starring Kurt Russell.

Actually, I'm pretty sure the movie you're looking for is called Breakdown.

It was made in the late 90's with Kurt Russell.
