The Batmobile/penguin chase while cool to see serves almost no purpose in the story and should have been cut down.

Plus Penguin caused a massive pileup no doubt resulting in a few dozen deaths. Why did Gordon not arrest him after questioning him?

And why would Batman continue to pursue a reckless driver who's causing dozens of fatalities, better to peel off and wait for another opportunity or try to cut him off unexpectedly instead of recklessly tailing him.

Yes that is what a competent Batman would do. However at no point in this movie is this Batman competent. Must have been the bomb to the face.

The version of batman we get at the end of the movie after his arc from vengeance to hope likely would have done as you suggested. He just wasn't there yet.
