Driver: Parallel Lines is the fourth game in the Driver video game series. The game was released on March 14 (March 17 in Europe), 2006 on the Xbox and PlayStation 2 consoles by Atari. After a year, the game is also available on Wii and PC which was released on June 26 (June 28 in Europe), 2007 by Ubisoft. Diverging from previous Driver games, Parallel Lines takes place in just one city, New York, instead of multiple cities. Due to the underwhelming performance of DRIV3R, particularly the often-derided on-foot sections, Parallel Lines returns to the formula used in earlier games in the series, focusing on driving.

The game was received better by critics than DRIV3R, yet was still criticized on a number of points, including its simple gameplay, hit-or-miss controls, simplified and more cartoonish graphics, and derivative storyline. This is the first game of the Driver series that does not follow undercover cop Tanner. Driver: Parallel Lines takes place in an entirely open-world environment. Instead of choosing minigames from a menu as in previous Driver titles, minigames are now accessed from the in-game world.
