In the first two games it is represented by a gold star with a tire on it. Writing on the tire reads 'ROAD KILL TIRES'.

In Halo 5: Guardians the skull and steering wheel are black inside of a yellow roadsign.

When playing a slayer game only have a driver and a gunner. Having a passenger most likely will give the other team a Triple Kill. Only have a passenger if it is an Assault, Oddball or Capture the Flag game.

Trivia[edit]

  • The original design of the medal is very similar to the Wheelman Spree medals. This design was originally used to represent the Halo 2 Roadkill medal.
