Ending / spoiler

Letty gets murdered by drug traffickers, so Dom and Brian decide to take down the drug traffickers from the inside. They arrest Braga but the FBI arrests Dom for all his past crimes. He gets sentenced to 25 years to life but on the transport bus to the prison, Brian, the two Mexican guys from the beginning, and Dom's sister, Mia, pull up behind it to break him out.

Dominic Toretto: It starts with the eyes. She's gotta have those kind of eyes that can look right through the bullshit, to the good in someone. 20% angel,80% devil. Down to earth. Ain't afraid to get a little engine grease under her fingernails.
Gisele Harabo: That doesn't sound anything like me.
Dominic Toretto: It ain't.
Trivia: At the start of filming Fast and the Furious, Jordana Brewster did not have her driver's license.
Question: Are they completely ignoring the events of the second movie? I was given the impression that Brian and Roman were going to open a garage together with the money they took from Carter. Plus Brian was on the outs with the FBI. Yet in this movie, he's suddenly an FBI agent.

Answer: No it doesn't ignore 2 Fast 2 Furious, Brian even references it a couple of times. In that movie, Brian was promised a 'clean slate' if he helped them out which presumably gives him the option to rejoin a law enforcement agency. That he chose not to open a garage with Roman is pretty much redundant, Brian simply got a better offer, and as he stated in Fast & Furious with his conversation with Mia, "I'm a good liar".
