This may help:

from django_filters import rest_framework as filters


class CharInFilter(filters.BaseInFilter, filters.CharFilter):
    pass


class VehicularAccessRecordInformationFilter(filters.FilterSet):
    vehicle_type = CharInFilter(field_name='vehicle_type')
    ...

    class Meta:
        model = VehicleAccessRecordInformation
        fields = ['vehicle_type', <other_fields>]

BaseInFilter accepts multiple values separated by comma, and CharFilter defines a type for the values, i.e. you can use NumberFilter, ChoiceFilter, etc.

So that ?vehicle_type=Mixer,Lorry evaluates to

VehicleAccessRecordInformation.objects.filter(vehicle_type__in=['Mixer', 'Lorry']
