Display full screen. Stop the vid. Advance frame by frame. The trailer
is (for lack of a better term) 'shopped.  Look at the bus/trailer
interface. Look at the bus reflections in the puddles. Look at the
lack of reflections for the trailer. Note that the puddle suddenly
gets longer and continues in the same shape with the same reflection
at the front of the trailer. The bus is real. The trailer is real. The
bus and the trailer were probably not on the same road at the same
time. Later scenes? The trailer is pulled by Ford Super Duty pickups.
Many of them.  Ain't CG wonderful?
