Main article: Oil Slick

Returning from Grand Theft Auto 2, this item was intended as a vehicle mounted weapon used to release oil onto the road, causing any following vehicles to lose control when they drive over the oil slick, obtained from GTA 2-style "drive through shops" and Phil's Army Surplus. It is internally named OIL SLICK in the game files (observed via hex editing).

The weapon can be obtained and selected through cheat devices, although it has no functionality in-game.
