The earlier Grand Theft Auto games would award you money for causing crashes, mowing down pedestrians, and causing general mayhem and destruction, with a multiplier being applied for how many missions had been completed without the player getting arrested. This mechanic was done away with starting with Vice City in order to give the games a less arcade-ish feel.

Sleeping Dogs: Running over parking meters gets you money (presumably the value that was in them).

The Burnout series has this in most of the games with its "Crash" events (like Burnout Paradise's "Showtime").
