Recruit a gang member and get into a car. As soon as they are about to enter the car, press the "exit car" button and hold the up button on the d-pad. If done correctly, the gang member will sit in the passenger seat for a few seconds, then get out, get back in, and take control of the car. However, sometimes, after they get back in, they will get right back out, and go hang around with some other gang members. This won't happen if the player uses the "recruit anyone" cheat and does this with a random pedestrian. (If the player gives someone control of an aircraft, they will just sit in place)

===Driveway Beagle===
On the southernmost block of Fort Carson, there is a Beagle that spawns in the driveway of a house. It is a glitch because it spawns between the house and a tall palm tree, with its left wing submerged in the side of the house. It is unstable, as even the slightest nudge or push can cause its left engine to catch on fire and explode. Entering it is not recommended, as it will also lead to imminent destruction. Sometimes it just explodes as soon as you get close enough for it to spawn. This glitch is most likely a coding error. Maybe a different vehicle was meant to spawn there, but the Beagle was placed there by accident. It is possible to get it out by sprinting against its backside and nudging it out from between the house and the tree, or by using several cheats.
===Airport Gate Glitch===
You can open the front gate of the Easter Bay Airport before you have acquired a pilots license. Walk up to its left sliding gate, punch it, and then turn around quickly, and it will open.
===Random Plane Crash Glitch===
There is a common and sometimes irritating random factor of the game where airplanes crash to the ground or into buildings near CJ (with sometimes fatal or mission-failing consequences). Most crashes occur if the player is roaming around an area with many tall structures around him (Buildings, trees, etc). The airplane may crash into one of these structures, making an audible explosion sound. However, there are also some instances where the player is on relatively flat ground and an airplane may just crash straight into the ground near him, or into the vehicle the player is in. Other crashes occur after CJ exits an interior after being inside for a few minutes and an aircraft spawns too low. This could be due to the unadvanced artificial intelligence that flying airplanes have in-game: When they spawn, they are programmed to fly in a straight line above the player, occasionally flying straight into a tall structure. Airplanes aren't necessarily programmed to change direction to avoid an oncoming object, they just rely on path files. Another explanation could be that the game developers implemented this on purpose, to emulate the random plane crashes that happen in real life. Random crashes occur all around the state, most notably around Downtown Los Santos and San Fierro, or also in heavily-forested areas like Whetstone. There are also frequent crashes atop Mount Chiliad.
===Bike Glitch===
Any bike in GTA San Andreas will burst into flames if it somehow ends up resting upside down. This is probably a designer oversight, because the task of getting a bike upside down is almost impossible.
