[SA:MP] Effectiveness of current traffic citations

[SkyHawk]

Me personally I've always supported the idea of developing a sort if impound lot. However any time I've tried to do this I run into an issue of not having a tow truck driver online to assist in the towing.. I'd say in rs5 we develop an impound division within Arpd to assist in impounding vehicles of repeat offenders.

If the misdemeanor is serious, the vehicle should be impounded and there is a fine that has to be paid in order to retrieve it. Right now this is useless since the owner can just /q or accidentally force crash in order to retrieve it. The impounded vehicles should not be respawned once the owner has quited the game. I do not know how many support this but it's really effective and easy. Additionally driver warnings could work as well, perhaps up to 5 warnings depending on the misdemeanor case of course, then the license should be revoked.

Though in the back of my mind I fear that this is too complicated to be implemented and there will be a lot of people against it, perhaps a post on SA;MP Ideas would be better, since the topic is about the current effectiveness and not future improvements.

Last time there was some hostage situation into FBI HQ, and the outside was such a mess full of civilian and police cars all over the street/sidewalk.

I agree with an impound system. I do not say only citizens park their car randomly, but also cops are doing it.
A way to go around cars disappearing when people relog could be that if the car is in a certain area (impound lot), then it doesn't despawn. I'm not sure if it's possible to script tho.

License can't be revoked,as license gives you ability buy the house and cars and therefore except fat NO from Gandalf.

As about the matter it self,we got a jail cell for a reason,and ability track down people violations via databases created by SAPD.

So giving an specific amount of points for each violation could give an optional score for each fugitive,which will lead to punishment via different type of prison's,when ever mordor or simple police department.

It will also give more opportunity and material for a roleplay,such as filling up the papers in police department with taken fugitive in custody.

However keep track in mind,people will moan about it,some might end up shooting you straight in the face and etc.
