Both Tino and Dom Cirillo would would have their drivers go the wrong way down one-way streets, travel up highway off ramps, run red lights, etc.

Barney Bellomo would even approach vans he suspected were FBI surveillance and look inside.

And, of course, the biggest one of all - Chin's crazy act.


Well, can't blame those guys for doing this. I would have probably done the same.
