A player can sometimes jump on top of a small vehicle at times, which I like calling ''Hijack". Its best if you use a Hero Character. Its great because you are able to hack & slash at the pilot or driver inside, yet the mostly can't hit you because of your "location". Good if you need a tank or cruiser dead and out of grenades / rockets / etc.
