'''Wheelman''' is a Halo 3 Multiplayer Medal awarded when the player, as the driver of a vehicle, has one of his/her passengers kill an opponent. The design of the medal is very similar to the [[Vehicular Manslaughter Medal]]. The Wheelman medal actually takes on the design of the Halo 2 Roadkill medal. On the tyre it says 'ROAD KILL TYRE' twice.
'''Wheelman''' is a ''[[Halo 3]]'', ''[[Halo Reach]]'', ''[[Halo 4]]'', ''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]'' and ''[[Halo Infinite]]'' [[multiplayer]], [[Firefight]] and [[Spartan Ops]] medal awarded when the player, as the driver of a [[vehicle]], has one of their passengers kill an opponent. 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 4'' it is represented by a white skull with a steering wheel on the forehead atop a blue circle and grey pentagon. In ''Halo 5: Guardians'' the skull and steering wheel are black inside of a yellow roadsign.

In ''Halo Infinite'', the player must get ten assists in a match to gain the medal.
 
Usually, it is accompanied by the message, "Your driving assisted <player>."
 
==Strategies==
The medal can be achieved easily with any map that has a [[Warthog]], especially in a Big Team Battle match.
 
Keep moving. If you stop a Warthog, Mongoose, Prowler, etc. it is a sitting duck, and can be easily [[Grenade Stick|stuck]] or [[Hijacking|hijacked]].
 
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==
*The original design of the medal is very similar to the [[Wheelman Spree]] medals. This design was originally used to represent the ''[[Halo 2]]'' [[Splatter|Roadkill medal]].
*It is in fact possible to get a Wheelman medal after someone sticks a player and then boards in a vehicle. Less common is filling someone up with [[Needler|needles]] or [[Paegaas Workshop Spiker|spikes]] and ''then'' getting in, as the time for the projectiles to explode is minimal.
