PLAYERUNKNOWN'S BATTLEGROUNDS is known for its more realistic battle royale gameplay, but its player base is not stranger to having things go wrong.

PUBG vehicles enabled players to travel across distances at faster speeds, provide cover during fighting, complete drive-byes and run players over. In test servers, they provide a more comedic and scientific aspect as players can test how high and far they can explode the vehicles.

PUBG Accidentally Eliminates Themselves With a Vehicle

Redditor u/streamlinedsentiment used their vehicle to eliminate an opposing player.

Unlucky for the opponent, the player hit them and was instantly removed from the game.

Although, karma came back to bite the player. The player speeds off a small hill and horizontally rams into a pole. Bursting into flames, the player instantly dies along with the vehicle exploding.

For players planning on doing a hit and run, maybe don't run into a player if they are near a pole and a hill. That only increases the chances of flipping the vehicle or running into an immovable object, causing a player's own death.
