Driving is a core mechanic, and mastering it is crucial for many missions. Learn the unique handling characteristics of different vehicles. For chases, use the handbrake for sharp turns but avoid oversteering. use the mini-map to anticipate police roadblocks and plan alternative routes. Driving on sidewalks or through alleys can sometimes shake off pursuers, but be mindful of pedestrians and obstacles. If your car is heavily damaged, try to find a mechanic or switch to a new vehicle if the mission allows. When evading police, breaking line of sight is key; duck into tunnels, drive through parks, or use tight turns to lose them. Remember that police will often try to ram your vehicle, so defensive driving is important.
