Mission walkthrough

  1. Take the first marked taxi

    Find the designated vehicle and steal it. Deal with its driver before he escapes, while keeping the taxi usable for the next objective.

  2. Use the South Docks crusher

    Drive the taxi to the crane at the crusher, park in its collection area and get out. Wait for the crushing sequence; simply blowing up the taxi does not satisfy Elmo’s instructions.

  3. Repeat for the second target

    Follow the next marker, steal the taxi and defeat the drivers who emerge. Then return the intact vehicle to the same crusher.

  4. Prepare for the final group

    The last taxi produces a larger armed group. Leave yourself space to fight without destroying the vehicle. After the drivers are defeated, take the third taxi to the crane and let it be crushed.

Key point

Both halves count: stop the drivers from escaping and dispose of each taxi with the crusher. Random taxi destruction is not a substitute.
