Driver 3 (stylized as DRIV3R) is a 2004 open world action-adventure video game. It is the third installment in the Driver series and was developed by Reflections Interactive and published by Atari. Driver 3 was released in North America for the PlayStation 2 and Xbox on 21 June 2004. In Europe, it was officially released on 25 June, although due to the way Atari shipped the title across the continent, it made its way into independent UK retailers before the release date, even reaching sixth place in the ELSPA chart for that week. A simplified version of the game for mobile phones was developed and released by Sorrent and published in North America on 23 June 2004, while it was published by Unique Games in Europe. On 15 March 2005, it was released on PC for US customers, it was also released on Game Boy Advance 25 October 2005. At one point a Nintendo GameCube version and an N-Gage version were planned, but both were cancelled. The game received mixed reviews on all platforms except the PC, which received mostly unfavorable reviews.

Although two Driver games were published between them, 2011's Driver: San Francisco is considered the sequel to Driver 3.

In Istanbul, Turkey, FBI agents John Tanner (Michael Madsen) and Tobias Jones (Ving Rhames) are getting ready to intercept criminal Charles Jericho (Mickey Rourke) and his crew. Tanner and Jones lead the Turkish police and set up a roadblock, engaging a shootout. While Jones leads the men, Tanner chases Jericho through the streets, with the scene abruptly ending when he enters his car and slams the door.
