With the influx of vehicles in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3, players are being forced to come up with unconventional tactics to handle unwelcome passengers in their vehicles.
The vehicle meta continues to reign supreme in Fortnite and there are limited options for countering it. Without an effective weapon to damage these cars, numerous players resort to hijacking the vehicles being used by their opponents.
When there is a passenger in the vehicle you are operating, it is not possible to remove them from the car. This can be a downside, especially if they are not on your team. As a result, players have had to come up with inventive methods to eject unwanted passengers from their vehicles.

To ensure the success of this approach, a multitude of components must fall into place within the game Fortnite, which is precisely what occurred in the aforementioned video.
The player successfully eliminated their opponent by driving into the Rift below Loot Island. Upon landing on top of Loot Island, the player drove to the edge and used a Boogie Bomb on the vehicle, causing the passenger to exit and resulting in their elimination from the game.
After the elimination, additional players joined the thread and shared their own tactics. One player shared, “I managed to eliminate two hitchhikers by driving straight into the storm. I had 3 health kits, so I stayed there and waited. Eventually, they got out and I quickly drove away to heal up. They ended up dying.”
“One of the players suggested, “Simply park the car in a way that the passenger seat is in the path of the storm. Eventually, the passenger will exit the car, giving you the opportunity to quickly drive away. I have used this tactic numerous times.”
Since the release of Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3, players have been devising clever strategies to handle the cars on the island while anticipating the arrival of a new Sniper rifle that, according to dataminers, will have 3x damage against cars.
Data analysts have also indicated that a collaboration between Pirates of the Caribbean and Fall Guys will be implemented in the game in the near future.
