Los Santos Traffic Control Department

Post by Daniel Mason »

The Los Santos Department Of Traffic Control :


Description:

The Los Santos Department of Traffic Control (LSDOTC) is here to prevent further accidents on the streets of our city , it has come to our attention that the number of accidents that ended up with victims has increased in the last month so we decided to increase our personnel and our patrols on the streets so we can keep people safe.
Remember that we are here for your own safety so treat our officers with respect , keep in mind to always wear your seatbelt and obey the speeding and other traffic rules .

Traffic violations and tickets :

Speeding:
Because of the low city population the speed limits are high of course except near areas with a high amount of population ,the average speed limit is 60 mph in the city limits and 80 mph outside the city ,breaking it will result in receiving a ticket from 500 $ to 2000 $ depending on the speed.

Hitting a parked car ( if the car is parked correctly) :
This will result in a 600 $ ticket and giving the victim repair money for his car ( if he asks for one )

Driving on the left side of the road :
It will result in a ticket from 500 $ to 1200 $ depending on the amount of time you drive on the wrong side.

Accidents that sold with an injury or sudden death :
This will result with a ticket from 2000 $ to 5000 $ depending on the situation , this is highly illegal and can also be considered as murder depending on the circumstances .

Illegal parking :
This will sold with a 300 $ ticket and moving your car to a legal parking place ,if there is no owner around the car will be impounded .

Illegal roadblocks , parades (without having the LSPD or LSDOTC consent ) :

These sold with a ticket from 600 $ to 2000 $ to all participants at the roadblock and/or parade depending on the situation

Traffic accidents are the leading cause of death in Los Santos for ages. The Los Santos Traffic Control Department values the health and safety of all those who drive or otherwise occupy a vehicle operating within Town limits, as well as that of the pedestrian population. In that light, we very aggressively enforce all State, County, and Municipal traffic laws.

Take a few moments each day to think about how you want other drivers to drive in your neighborhood. Be observant of the posted speed limits; they are there for everyone's safety. Also be aware of what is going on around you at all times. It only takes a split second for a child or pet to run out into the road!
Pedestrians please always use the sidewalks ,if you get hit on the road by a non – speeding car it will not be the drivers fault but your own.

Why?:
Well there are lots of people who don’t know or don’t care about how they drive , I’m sure we could bring some order in the traffic here ,me and my guys will do our best to keep the streets safe , I don’t even care about the leadership because ill be on the streets with my guys keeping them safe .
((As for the OOC , well i would say we are pretty established here on SZR , not as a gang but as players , I don’t want this to be a gang but a faction like the LSPD or the SA News , I hope we will make it official so we can prove ourselves ))

This seems like a good faction application, the skins with the tan uniform and/or the hat are the only one I can see causing a conflict (Joe McGoebbler) Perhaps you could also add something on vehicles.

the decision is not mine on this, but I would suggest you ask for wayfarers (like police bikes but civilian versions) which may be able to be faction locked. In my experience, the act of telling members not to use a skin that is in the pool is doomed to fail, it would be easier to use the skins that are already in the SAS faction pool, maybe with the cop biker skin aswell.

The secret to a successful application is to minimize the effort that coders/admins need to put in, and with the faction already set up, your chances are pretty good.

I think it should just replace the SAS.

They are all but useless right now except for amusing conversations about crushed hopes and dreams when they realize they can't do shit.

They can be equipped with 'mace' and nightsticks. Fuck giving them guns, SAS like to randomly shoot things in an attempt to feel in control.

Any time people are given powers and responsibilities meant to be MUCH LESS than those of LSPD they act like they're ranking members of the Gestapo until we get more complaints than even SZR admins can ignore

Thanks for your support people , im sure my guys will not cause problems and they will act like simple traffic control agents , i trust them and they have some ingame experience from before the wipe , and if we get official i wont just go around inviting anyone who asks into my faction , i will try to get good rpers that are mature enough to take this role ,as i said in the app , give us a chance to prove ourselves.

Im glad some people like the ideea and im sure we will determine people to drive by the rules , of course if the situation gets out of control and people will refuse to comply we will call the police ( or announce them by radio if we get a common radio with the LSPD ) , we will only shoot if they will shoot at us first ,of course our main objective will be to control the traffic and see to it that no more incidents will happen.

I'll make a 3rd Alt, and you can count me in on the alt.

Ideally, the name would be Mike_Melts

And what is wrong with that? It's light RP for a reason. Besides, I believe the current mayor's policies allow you to drive wherever you want legally.

Then lets vote to have that position changed. It's a democracy, we can do it if the majority agrees to it.

It appears that the majority of posters like this idea/faction, and are annoyed by erratic drivers.

My idea addon: The higher-ranking ops would have ECOM (Emercency Communication) access to the PD radio for backup requests/bigger situations.

No, it's not a democracy

It's light RP for a reason

Thanks for the support guys , oh yea ,and for the light rp thing...well it is light rp but its not a stunt server ,it is rp for a reason , light rp means that you don't have to use /me at every action you make ,you don't have rp a car theft unless you want to ,you don't have an /engine action and you don't have to rp starting your car ,but that doesnt give you the right to drive like a maniac or park in the middle of the road , its just annoying to people on the server that get their car blown away or they even get killed cause of dumb people that drive like maniacs
