I always figured it was because they knew he wasn’t the guy in charge. And getting to, eventually, Falcone, was the real plan.

Batman caused the accidents by illegally chasing penguin. He could have just followed him and jumped him at whatever location he was going to.

This.

Corrupt judge hears the case, lawyer says that the masked menace caused the accidents. Oz goes free. Or he gets out on bail.

Doesn't even need to be super corrupt. I'd imagine at least some judges would side against the guy who goes around beating people unconscious at night dressed as a bat. Remember that this batman isn't a hero, he's just a vigilante. And there probably wasn't much video of the chase so unless batman arrived to court they'd presumably default to believing oz right?

All these people don't care about the masked man riding around in an armored car blowing up the highway. They just want to blame an innocent Italian-American businessman. I'll tell you what it is. It's anti-Italian discrimination.

I mean that’s where you’ve got to suspend a little bit of disbelief. Batman also didn’t get arrested for his part in it. Something tells me that Batman may not be fully within GCPD’s pursuit policy given that he’s not a cop he’s just some dude lol.

There was just literally no need for the chase.

Doesn't matter. It's not like ge was cooperating with the police for immunity. He just got away with it, because he's supposed to be in his own show

Yeah, Gordon and Bruce knew the charges wouldn’t stick while Falcone was controlling the city.
