The '''Roadkill''' or '''Splatter''' in [[Halo 3]]) Medal is awarded and achieved for hitting and killing an opponent with ''any'' kind of vehicle. It is available in all [[Multiplayer]] gametypes where a vehicle is available and has a [[Bungie]] difficulty rating of 1 (out of 10). It is represented by:

*Halo 2: A five-pointed star with a tire
*Halo 3: A cross with a person's waist snapped apart


After you hit and kill an opponent with a vehicle, a message will appear on your screen that says: "You splattered (player)". This is also a medal in Halo 3 campaign. It is also possible to splatter someone by launching an object at them with a explosive, or using a [[Gravity Hammer]] to perform said task. You can also splatter someone by launching a large object by using a man cannon. Plus it is possible to splatter yourself. Another way is to be squashed by an object, often a vehicle.
The '''Splatter''' ('''Roadkill''' in ''[[Halo 2]]'') medal is awarded in [[campaign]], [[multiplayer]], [[Firefight]] and [[Spartan Ops]] and achieved for hitting and killing an opponent with a vehicle. It is represented in ''Halo 2'' and the ''[[Halo 3 Beta]]'' by a five-pointed star with a tire in the center (this image was later used for [[Wheelman]]). In ''[[Halo 3]]'', ''[[Halo 3: ODST]]'' and ''[[Halo: Reach]]'' it is represented by a yellow diamond street sign depicting a person split in half at the waist, imposed on a bronze cross. In ''[[Halo 4]]'' the sign is imposed on a grey 4-pointed star. In ''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]'' the medal consists of the street sign only.


If you are playing Halo 3, it is considerably easier to get this medal with the [[Ghost]] than any other vehicle, because of its speed and maneuverability. However, it can be avoided by being easily jumped over.
This medal is accompanied by the message, "You splattered (player)". It is also possible to splatter a player with an object by launching it with an explosive, using a [[Gravity hammer (fiction)|gravity hammer]], or by launching a large object through a [[man cannon]].
The Halo 3 medal also resembles the "Bob-B-Q" medal from Marathon: Durandal.  


==Trivia==
*The ''Halo 3'' medal also resembles the "Bob-B-Q" achievement from the XBLA port of ''[[Marathon#Marathon 2: Durandal|Marathon 2: Durandal]]''.
*The medal has a [[Bungie]] difficulty rating of 1 out of 10.
*An altered version of this medal can be seen on [[Sandbox warning|Sandbox]]. The sign first appeared in the series as the [[Zanzibar Eggs|Zanzibar Sign Easter Egg]] on October 31, though the emblem's design has been a symbol of Bungie for far longer.
*Earning this medal in a [[Halo 2 (Windows Vista)|''Halo 2'' for Windows Vista]] multiplayer game unlocked the [[Roadkill (achievement)|Roadkill]] achievement.
*Prior to the shutdown of [[Xbox 360]] ''Halo'' online services on January 13, [[2022]], earning this medal with the [[Mongoose]] on a ranked free-for-all playlist in ''Halo 3'' unlocked the [[Mongoose Mowdown]] achievement.
*Prior to the shutdown, earning this medal five times in a ''Halo: Reach'' multiplayer matchmaking game on an [[Anniversary Map Pack|Anniversary map]] unlocked the [[License to Kill]] achievement.
*Prior to the shutdown, earning this medal five times in a ''Halo 4'' [[War Games]] matchmaking game on a [[Castle Map Pack|Castle map]] unlocked the [[Outta My Way!]] achievement.
*Earning 100 Splatter medals in ''[[Halo 2: Anniversary]]'' multiplayer matchmaking in ''[[Halo: The Master Chief Collection]]'' will unlock the [[Roadkill Rampage]] achievement.
*In ''Halo: Reach'', although one can not easily splatter with the slow [[S-2 Traxus Cargo Transporter|Forklift]] unless their opponent is [[Armor Abilities#Sprint|sprinting]] or charging, using the forklift as a projectile will earn one this medal, even if no one is driving it. The medal will also be awarded if the forklift explodes and kills an enemy.
