Starter vehicle comparison
Table
Both starter vehicles are free, and you can buy additional cars later, so neither choice locks you out of anything permanently. That said, each one suits a different approach to the game.
| Linkeen LS | a balanced sedan built for city streets, good for learning the roads |
| Nason Path | a rugged off-road vehicle that can reach places a sedan cannot, especially useful for escaping police pursuits |

Roles and what they involve
Summary
San Aurie gives you several distinct ways to spend your time. Emergency-service roles come with department-exclusive vehicles you cannot use outside that job.
- Police
arrests criminals and responds to emergencies; higher ranks unlock additional police vehicles
- Fire department
tackles fires and rescues people using a dedicated fleet of trucks
- Delivery
transports goods and food around the city
- Road service
tows broken-down vehicles; larger tow trucks become available at higher ranks
- Criminal
robs vending machines, ATMs, houses, and cars, and organizes heists; staying wanted means the police are always after you
Playing as a criminal
Tips
To start a criminal run you need to rob something — vending machines and ATMs are the entry point, and you will need a baseball bat to do it. Once you are wanted, the police will pursue you. Heists like the Arcade Heist, National Bank Heist, and Yorktown Bank Heist are available.
- Buy a baseball bat first
you cannot rob vending machines or ATMs without one.
- Equip an automatic weapon such as the M4A1 or MP5 to stay competitive against officers armed with handguns.
- Avoid SWAT soldiers carrying Honey Badger Assault Rifles
they are significantly harder to handle than standard officers.
- Keep a fast car for active chases and a slower, inconspicuous car for moving around when you have a warrant out.
- While driving the slow car, obey speed limits, stop at red lights, and yield to emergency vehicles so you do not draw attention.
- Run heists in a group of five to seven or more armed players.
Vehicle ownership rules
CheckSan Aurie has a wide vehicle roster, but a few restrictions can catch you off guard. Emergency vehicles belong exclusively to their departments, and some civilian vehicles cost a Gamepass on top of their in-game price. Vehicle prices can also change with updates.
- Confirm whether a civilian vehicle requires a Gamepass before committing to it.
- Check that you are in the correct department before expecting to use a police, fire, or road-service vehicle.
- Store illegal items in your car trunk if police catch you, anything you are carrying gets confiscated.
- Re-check vehicle prices after major updates, since the game has noted they are subject to change.

Common questions
FAQWhich starter vehicle should I pick?
If you plan to play as a criminal and need to outrun police, the Nason Path is the stronger choice because of its off-road capability. If you want to learn the city layout first, the Linkeen LS is easier to handle on normal streets. You can always buy other vehicles later.
How do I get access to more police vehicles?
Join the police department and work your way up through the ranks. Additional vehicles become available as your rank increases, and police vehicles can only be used while you are on duty as an officer.
What happens to my weapons if I get caught by police?
Any guns or illegal items you are carrying when arrested are taken from you. Keeping those items in your car trunk before a confrontation is one way to protect them.
