vanishing vehicles, parking and tow trucks

[fiwiman 10]

in regards to vehicles, instead of vehicle vanishing after, lets say, 30 minutes why not have a more interactive system where you have an impound lot that is npc operated and npc tow trucks.  how it could work is like this:

1. having spots where a player can safely park, in indicated areas that are highlighted only when inside vehicle.

2.  if an annoying player (and there will be lots) choose to exit and leaves the vehicle anywhere that may be of nuisance to other players for longer than an alloted time then the tow truck comes along and pulls the vehicle to the pound (which doesn't necessarily have to display every vehicle in the lot but rather have the vehicle disappear after the tow truck pulls it in)

3. the owner of the vehicle will now have to enter the front office of the pound and pay a fee to get it back

 

i believe this will prevent congested streets and cars parked on sidewalks, on chairs and god knows where else

There will not be any NPC's driving anything at all. There are tow trucks and they are controlled by real players.
