As long as their retractable appendages are popped out, the Rollermines (Hλlf-Life 2 series) can magnetically stick to vehicles, like the buggy Gordon uses to travel around the coastline. Despite sounding irritating, they not only interfere as well as screw up the steering, but they can instantaneously shock the drivers and passengers from within via the electric auras they coat themselves in.
