The game’s setting focuses on a fictionalized version of San Francisco, and surrounding regions of Marin County and Oakland, recreating the geography, generalized layout of the city, and notable landmarks including the San Francisco–Oakland Bay Bridge and Golden Gate Bridge. The recreation features around 208 miles (335 km) of roads, though the amount of roads and territory in the setting is reduced in the Wii edition, as the main bridges of the city are blocked. The events of the game take place six months after the events of Driv3r; a mini-comic series provides background on events during the six-month period.

Following successful surgery that saves the life of both himself and John Tanner, an undercover FBI agent, notorious crime kingpin Charles Jericho escapes his custody in a Turkish hospital and flees back to the United States. Tanner, alongside his partner Tobias Jones, manages to locate and arrest him six months later in San Francisco. On the day of his trial for multiple homicides and drug trafficking, Jericho stages a breakout from his prison convoy, overpowering his guards and eliminating the police escort. While monitoring the convoy’s route, Tanner and Jones witness the breakout and pursue after him after he takes control of his prison van. When they lose sight of Jericho in an alley, they soon find themselves being pursued by him down it. Tanner does his best to outrun him but is forced into a street of heavy traffic that results in a devastating crash, putting him in a coma. Moments later, Tanner awakens in his car with Jones, finding everything seems to be back to normal, despite the fact that Jericho is still on the loose. As he pursues after him with Jones, Tanner finds himself hearing voices in his head regarding an accident.
