New Server Rule - Excessive Traffic Law Breaking

[DubStepMad]

Before I start, I did search the forums and server rules for this and found nothing.

Suggestion: Excessive Traffic Law Breaking.

Description of rule: This rule will enforce that RP is upheld at all times, even when the server is low on population and/or no police are on. The rule will enforce all traffic laws are followed by players at anytime unless they have a valid RP reason such as being chase by attackers, police pursuit, etc.

Reason for this rule: As I am new to the server and have around 14 hours on the server, all I have seen that many players do not obey the traffic laws unless police are around. As a new player I see this as no one wants to RP or even be serious which can end up with new players leaving. Myself personally only notice that RP is present when interacting with others on the server.

Enforcing this rule: As admins who are active should be randomly checking players, this could be a duty they can also check upon. But also not leaving this to just admins but players can report as well.

Punishment (My Opinion): Now to have the most realistic RP server the punishment (not my decision) should go from a warning to a ban of 24 hours, then a 3 day ban and finally a perm ban.

Well stating that just means in some way a load has to be removed off the staff or try and get more staff. I understand its easier said that done but these are suggestions only.

This is an IC law. Not an OOC rule. Making it admin punishable to break the IC law is a very backwards way of thinking in my opinion. 

The PD are always recruiting and always have fresh faces motivated to work.

Depends how you look at it... If you want a community to have fun but yet have realistic RP experience then a rule like this would be good since it takes a load of IC policing since there is always something going on.

But yes I understand your point of view, since they are IC laws they should be monitored IC by the police. 

Please try and understand this from different views.

Most poeple Who drive reclessly are criminals, as People Who has gov Jobs risk losing them if seen speeding. A simple way you Can personally punish these players are With /record and then later show PD the clip icly. This Will punish the person Who as you say " didnt care about rp while driving" and Will make poeple more careful.

Going through the city at 200 km/h completely ignoring all traffic lights and intersections without an in-character reason to do so should be considered Non-RP. No need to create a new rule.

You never seen that happen irl? Let people have their fun. I d say punish harder if they crash, even after only they get injured, of course. Keep IC behavior punished IC, please, even the prison feels like an ooc punishment. 

The only thing that should be punished OOcly should be seriously getting injured or crashing but surviving  by game mechanics and then moving along and prolly driving their wrecked cars-imagine if this kind of realistic RP was respected... Everyone breaks this: civilians, criminals, cops.

I understand where you're coming from and what you want. Unfortunately, we can't punish people for just speeding (OOC anyway). You can report it, take a /record(ing) or become a Police Officer yourself!

In-character issue. However, some things could go under Non-RP Behavior if necessary.
