Alright, here me out before you jump to conclusions.

I am suggestion that we go back to a partial system of what we had before hand, where we allow the police to fine an individual, which goes to a bill section for the individual, who can choose the pay the fine or not. Now, the main concern is that no one will pay the fine, and so, the solution would be to only allow optional fines for a citation. Any time an individual is arrested, they would be fully billed with the current system we have now. If someone doesn't pay the fine for the traffic ticket, on the next traffic stop that the individual will eventually be in, the officer will see that he didnt pay the fine, and then the officer would be able to arrest him for failure to pay. And, if the individual continues to elude police, or is never stopped, a warrant could be issued, or the police may seize property belonging to the individual in order to pay off the fine. Which, could include interest on the fine. In addition, after say, 2 weeks, of not paying, your license could be suspended.

Now, why do this?
Well, for starters, it allow more Roleplay to happen. It can provide the ability for people to go to court to contest small citations. Which could be interesting. In addition, we could see cops starting to revoke peoples license, or seizing assets.
And second, why not? It is kind of dumb to force people to pay a fine with absolutely no way to get out of it, especially for something as minuscule as a citation. The main concern is that we did this before and no one payed the tickets. So, start arresting people if they dont pay. And once they are arrested, you should be able to use the other option which does force the amount out of their bank instead of allowing them to pay it. This way, if someone is arrested, they could be force billed for both the citation, the interest and the fine for the charge they wound up with.

I'm unsure if we are able to do this, nor am i sure if we have the time to do it. It might just be a limitation of the script.

I'm not sure if this is easier, but perhaps if you have what we used to have for mechanics, /bill was a thing which auto took out, and we also had the f6 bill which was a fee they could choose the pay. But if thats not possible thats a shame but oh well.
 
I don't see why this can't be done. I think it's a great idea. I would say it's definitely not a top priority but I completely agree this system would add a lot more roleplay on the DoJ side and cop side dealing with people who fail to pay their fines.

Hopefully something like this could be implemented down the line. Especially with the server being whitelisted, people should be properly roleplaying as such.

Your average character wouldn't be avoiding a simple fine because of the repercussions down the road, while prolific criminals might evade them as long as possible which leads to those warrants and extra roleplay to deal with them.
 
As stated above by Jeremy Duck, the leadership team sees this as a great opportunity for expansion of Roleplay. In my eyes the best implementation of this would be to implement it into the Phone. We will look at possible solutions for integration and then I will get back with you.

We appreciate this and all the other suggestions you have provided. Keep up the great work!
 
I already contest my tickets IRL 😂 This would definitely add to the roleplay.
