DVLA / Licensing

[Fox]

May have been suggested before but I think it would be good to include some sort of DVLA / Driving license system.

 

I have a feeling that people will either agree entirely or disagree entirely. 

 

Here is my proposal:

Similarly to the police test, you obtain a license by going through a form and getting a % correct

Make it so that police can give you points for driving like a dickhead, get too many points and your license is revoked, driving without a license is a serious offence. . (You can't spawn a car without a license, but once you've obtained it, you can then still drive with a revoked license)

To get your license put back in good standing you have to speak to the DVLA (sub dept of the gov) and pay for a driving test to prove your competence.

 

PRO

- Would stop a lot of VDM of people just joining factions, obtaining a car and running people over.

- Create more driving RP, made men might rely on drivers more for example.

- More fun, realistic RP.

- Adds another way of reducing money on the economy

- More RP for the low level police who will be able to do more traffic stops

- New gov department will mean new RP and potentially a new legal way to make money

- Less dickheadish driving 

- More of a risk of keeping illegal items in your car

 

CON

- Might not be popular to gatekeep driving as people like driving recklessly

- Implementation might be difficult, or if implemented a lot of people will get caught by the changes as they aren't aware.

- Might not be as fun as I think, may make the 'serious RP' a little too serious

I want to start suspensions on driver licenses. There is people who shouldn't deserve to drive. Judges should be able reinstate or take away people's licenses if they seem unsafe.

Exactly, then if you get caught driving without a license the police can step in and arrest you

J walking is a nothing crime. You can have a gun license revoked for gun related crime but you can run over multiple people, serve your time and then just do it again, and again.
