destroyElement not work

[#RooTs]

hello friends, I made a function to destroy the vehicle after 5 seconds. most did not succeed.

I've tried with and without loop the loop

function VehicleExplode() 
        for k, v in pairs(vehicles) do 
                if v == source then 
                        setTimer(function() 
                        destroyElement(vehicles[source]) 
                        vehicles[source] = nil 
                        end, 5000, 1, vehicles[source]) 
                end 
        end 
end 
addEventHandler("onVehicleExplode", root, VehicleExplode)

Thanks, my friend

No loop needed, just show my way.

Ah, didn't check thoroughly. I guess source doesn't need a table unless he created one.

Your code didn't work and it's wrong, try it.

[AboShanab]

I just edit the code to fix some typo, try it now.

Also, your table is 'vehicles' and not 'vehicle', isn't it?
