Is this a new law or a change to a current law: A new law

What law do you wish to change/add:
Section 1: Terminology
Government-issued identification refers to any official identity document issued and standardised by the government, of which must at least include one's full name, date of birth, place of birth, and picture. Documents must be kept up to date.

Section 1: Terminology
Paralake City Identity Card refers to the official identity document issued to every citizen of Paralake City immediately upon their arrival.

Why should this change/addition be made: As right now, people's idea of identification comes in many ways. Some simply state their name, this being uncredible for look-alikes and fairly unprofessional to accept without any further investigation. Others provide their 'ID', which isn't elaborated at all in any way in the law book. Therefore, having laws stating that one must have identification when operating a vehicle seems much more realistic in an Amercian-esque environment, where, in most countries, it is required (or at least required to be presented within 7 days).

What is the aim of this change/addition: To clear up any confusion regarding the state of our identification system as well as to help officers and citizens alike have reasons of doubt when a fake name is given.

EDIT: Removed 12.16 addition due to it being redundant. Was mainly just a branch-off from the terminology.

I believe the ticketing price is a bit excessive for how much of a small offence this is especially compared to perp money, people either way normally use /me's and have their ID's on them. Yes the ticket price is fairly similar to real life prices but we don't want to replicate real life to the point is unfun. I'll hold out on this and give this a current neutral in my books since I don't believe such a law is currently necessary since the server has functioned like this for years already.

Thank you for taking your time to suggest something you believe is great!

don't exactly believe that it's great, just that it helps clarify things

it's mainly for the terminology to be cleared up for lore purposes, and because there's a lack of fluency between descriptions.
12.16 removed upon own request, i mainly added it because it was something i thought of, but then again it'll be open to exploits and honesty
