Which route were they taking?
If they were traveling from LA to Oakland, they would most likely take the 101, which doesn't really make any sense since it looks like they were driving by the ocean a lot. Plus the 101 is a freeway and it looks like they were mostly driving on a regular highway. I'm guessing they were taking the Pacific Coast Highway, even though it takes longer. The area where Lucky and Chicago get into a fight looks like it could have been at Point Mugu Rock though (it's near Malibu)
