# Vehicle Restrictions

> Create role based restrictions for ERLC vehicles and control which players can drive specific vehicles during sessions.

***

## What are Vehicle Restrictions?

Vehicle Restrictions allow you to lock specific ERLC vehicles behind Discord roles.\
Players who do not meet the required role will be flagged in the panel or reminded in game.\
This is useful for VIP vehicles, Booster vehicles, department vehicles, or any vehicle you want to limit to certain groups.
