Learn how to place a player into a vehicle or wagon seat.

So, this snippet demonstrates how to synchronize player entry and exit from vehicles across the network using server events and vehicle network IDs:

Lua

---------------------------------------------------------------------
-- Utility
---------------------------------------------------------------------

local function GetVehicleFromNetId(netId)
    if not netId then
        return nil
    end

    local vehicle = NetworkGetEntityFromNetworkId(netId)

    if vehicle == 0 or not DoesEntityExist(vehicle) then
        return nil
    end

    return vehicle
end

---------------------------------------------------------------------
-- Place Player Into Vehicle
---------------------------------------------------------------------

RegisterNetEvent("your-police-script:PutInVehicle", function(vehicleNetworkId, seat)
    local ped = PlayerPedId()
    local vehicle = GetVehicleFromNetId(vehicleNetworkId)

    if not vehicle then
        return
    end

    if not IsVehicleSeatFree(vehicle, seat) then
        return
    end

    SetPedIntoVehicle(ped, vehicle, seat)
end)

---------------------------------------------------------------------
-- Remove Player From Vehicle
---------------------------------------------------------------------

RegisterNetEvent("your-police-script:RemoveFromVehicle", function(vehicleNetworkId, seat, targetPed)
    local vehicle = GetVehicleFromNetId(vehicleNetworkId)

    if not vehicle then
        return
    end

    if GetPedInVehicleSeat(vehicle, seat) ~= targetPed then
        return
    end

    -- TaskLeaveVehicle
    Citizen.InvokeNative(0xE0B61ED8BB37712F, targetPed)
end)
