Make police vehicles harder to put on the tow truck

Hello my fellow RP'ers

As the implementation of tow trucks being able to tow any vehicle without needing a transfer or an inpound order people have been just towing police cars from major scenes or just regular traffic stops (has happened to me) with little to no roleplay I feel like there should be some changes made to how you can tow a police vehicle cause in my opinion people will just start towing police vehicles so they can get the police issued items and even possibly firearms (I'm not 100% sure if you can lockpick/drill the safes that are in the police vehicles).

So these are my thoughts on how to fix it:

1.) Make it so someone has to give you the keys to the police vehicle before putting it on the tow truck

2.) Have an animation for the tow trucks if they are putting it onto the tow truck because at the moment there is no other animation other than the notepad to indicate that the vehicle is getting placed on the tow truck. My idea is at the very least have it so the tow truck bed moves to the ground to indicate that a car is getting placed on it so there is a more notable animation.

I feel like it's a good implementation for more RP opportunities but it just needs some more stuff added to make it a great RP tool.


I'm open to any other suggestions or counter arguments to this.
 
Before I was banned I went around towing trucks and tried a police car (👀)! It was fun putting cars on trucks then charging people to take it off but it was a bit silly how easy it was to
"take" cars. So I agree there should be possibly a different animation or possibly a longer time with the car needing to be unlocked/lockpicked first!
 
Maybe only unlocked OR impounded cars can be attached?

-adds a bit of time to stealing a car
-doesn't slow down legit impounds
-gives police some extra leeway because of the 5 pin lock
 
No idea why being able to Tow all vehicles was even implemented and I don`t really care to much.
But I don't agree that only Police Vehicles should be harder to tow than others.

Like Father Augustus said. If you make changes, make it harder for all non impounded vehicles which you don't have keys for.
 
-1 on needing keys, just make it so the vehicle needs to be unlocked if anything. That way you either find one unlocked and take it, or you need to spend the time lockpicking it.

I don’t understand why it would only apply to Police though, if there’s a change make it universal.
 
Another suggetion that makes life harder for crims and makes life easier for the police

-1 Should be for everyone not just the police
 
Make it so the car has to be unlocked. With cars and the type of tow truck the server has cars are very hard/slow irl to tow without unlocking car due to handbrake preventing easy load.

Make it so the car has to be unlocked. Unlucky for those who leave unlocked.
Makes civis a little harder
Makes police harder than civis. Its a fair of both are harder just one is more harder.
 
1.) Make it so someone has to give you the keys to the police vehicle before putting it on the tow truck
This used to be how it was. So your suggesting to revert tow truck changes what people have agreed has had a positive effect?
