In Samson, you’ll encounter jobs that require you to take down vehicles. In most cases, they are also trying to flee from you, and it is hard to take them down, especially without weapons involved.

You can ram them, but it also damages your vehicle, and the job becomes even harder. However, there’s a simple way to finish these types of jobs, and here’s the best way to take those vehicles down in Samson.

How to Destroy Other Vehicles in Samson

The first job encounter that requires you to destroy vehicles will probably come from the “Gold’s Gas is like Family” job. You must take down two fleeing crew members using two different cars, making it a tough job. There are more jobs like this, so it is important to learn a few things before starting them.

First, one way to destroy other vehicles is by just physically ramming into them. There’s even a side ram control input (X or Square on the controller) to smash those vehicles from the side. However, your car also takes damage from doing this, and if you don’t build enough speed, you actually barely do any damage at all.

Next, before starting the job, you want to repair your vehicle so you actually have some durability to spare when ramming into other vehicles. Jobs like these are still doable with low durability, but you’ll have to do the next strategy if you want to do it.

Lastly, the best way to take down other vehicles is to go on a longer chase and force them to crash into a pole, pillar, other car, wall, or anything sturdy. To preserve your car’s durability, just lightly ram the other vehicle on the side and look for opportunities to make it crash.

However, you want to do this at high speed, so try to let them flee for a little while without ramming them. Let them pick up some speed first. If they crash and they weren’t really going fast, it won’t instantly wreck their vehicle.

I would also suggest refraining from using nitro boosts. It should be easy to catch up eventually. Just use the boost if your nitrous bar is full. This way, you can aim for sandwich boards to refill your nitrous bars little by little. If your nitrous bar is empty, make sure to refill it before starting the job. You refill nitrous the same way you repair your vehicle – in the repair shops.
