Discussion Post: https://perpheads.com/threads/adding-high-visibility-vests.35871/
Main Idea: Follow through on the accepted suggestion and implement yellow, green or orange high-visibility vests for Traffic Officers.
Full description of the idea: A few years ago, a suggestion was made asking for officers to be granted high-visibility vests for their own safety on the highway, as their uniform blends in too well with the grey and black asphalt of the road and doesn't do them any favours when dealing with traffic. It was accepted, yet nothing was ever developed (apart from early RTU uniforms, which had a yellow armband). I'd like to revive this accepted suggestion for development.
Pros:
+ Less traffic accidents due to 'I couldn't see the officer'
+ Encourages RTU to engage with traffic-related duties
+ Provides immersion and allows for legal cases involving accidents (e.g. 'You hit me but I was wearing a high-vis vest, so it's negligence)
+ Pleases many players who have been waiting for this.
Cons:
- Makes officers easier to see in shootouts? (Not really, as they can be removed in raids but whatever @Slayerduck)
Other additions: Perhaps adding these to medics and such also?

- Amend the current officer models to include the high-vis vest as a bodygroup, and create a seperate high-vis vest model without a user for the inventory wheel.
- Have an equippable high-vis vest that is auto-given to every RTU officer upon going on-duty.
