Parking Tickets - Government Officials

Ello Perplovers :D

I've been thinking of this for a while now. Lately , more and more , I see police vehicles racing down the roads , cutting corners , driving offroad , speeding , and pretty much ignoring every traffic rule in the book out of the city proper.

When I first joined this server I remember a road crew worker doing the same , so as I was playing a police officer , I pulled him over. It was then I found out you couldn't ticket government vehicles (I assume because of the fact no one really 'owns' them and they are spawned in by any employee) so I let him go with a 'warning'. This is when this issue first came to mind.

Pretty much the only thing you can do , to prevent government personel from doing things like this is contact the mayor and have said employee demoted. This isn't always possible though , due to the fact some mayors are more talkative then others, etc; ...

Right now I feel like too many government vehicles are allowed to walk straight over the traffic rules , and no one bothers doing anything about it anymore it seems , due to the fact you can't just pull them over and tell them off, because when you do they don't seem to be too bothered , knowing you can't ticket them anyways. Then again 'demotion' doesn't seem like a reasonable response to a mistake such as disobeying trafic laws.

So I wanted to ask , in the next map , are we going to be able to ticket or 'punish' government officials in any way other than having them demoted ? I feel that would encourage players occupying these jobs to stick to the traffic rules, and behave , if you will.

Your comment and opinion is , as always , greatly appreciated !

Thats what the demote option is for. If people wrecklessly drive as a gov offical, they deserve a demote so they know its serious.

DaNiz is right there is no other way but to have them demoted. you can't really punish a government job with tickets its pointless. and since this is a serious rp server they need to act serious. If you believe they are ruining your game-play experience. use /report. however i do know what you mean. But remember you can contact the mayor/chief assuming there is one at that time.

They should always use /report since a government official shouldn't be breaking the law they don't even have to bother contacting the mayor. Admins should immediatly handle this kind of shit.

True, but in the rules it states that Government Officials should stick to the law.
