Yung PussyBanger Posted April 24, 2023 Share Posted April 24, 2023 Everyone has witnessed someone else getting arrested for merely stepping one foot onto the street and being arrested for "Jaywalking". If you know/don't know already, Jaywalking is the act of crossing the street illegally, without using the crosswalks/tunnels/etc. Majority of the time Jaywalking has been misused, such as stepping on the road for .5 seconds and a CP main would fine/arrest you for Jaywalking. This law has been abused since the dawn of time and I and many others are getting sick of it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BearPaws Posted April 24, 2023 Share Posted April 24, 2023 The only problem is that unless you have a clipping software and are willing to make/upload clips there's really not a way to stop CP players from abusing this even if the law is clarified. I would recommend everyone start using clipping software and make forum posts about CP's who are abusing this rule if you are unsuccessful with contacting staff on the server at the time of it happening. Staff also don't always have the time to spectate and keep eyes on people who may be abusing this rule 24/7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
{GN} Isaac Posted April 24, 2023 Share Posted April 24, 2023 If the staff team agrees, we can just add“ stepping on the street doesn't justify a fine for j walking” or something like that in Motd next to General cop rule I do agree with you and support a change. + 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you do, you can tell them to not fine people for that and explain. If you don't just TP them and lmk just in case that you're not allowed to fine for that. Usually they will remember and you're going to be alert anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AflictoGaming Posted April 24, 2023 Share Posted April 24, 2023 Jaywalking: "cross or walk in the street or road unlawfully or without regard for approaching traffic." Walking in the street in general is considered jaywalking but I can agree it def is annoying to be arrested for steeping out on it for less then a second. So it would be good to get more clarification on it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goodnight Posted April 24, 2023 Share Posted April 24, 2023 I fully support the rule change because I cannot tell you how many times I've had to slide past another player who was standing on the sidewalk, buildings being on the sidewalk, or again, just having one foot on the road for a mere second or two and a cop cuffs and fines. I think this rule should be handled with more severity because it allowed CP jobs to abuse their role and make it significantly less fun for all non CP players. Whether staff spectates after a player mass false J-walk fines or clipped evidence is provided, this is a good rule to add and enforce. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crabroll Posted April 24, 2023 Share Posted April 24, 2023 As rp is a representation of real life, jaywalking is crossing or walking in the street where there is traffic. The unwritten server culture is the fact that once a player's foot even edges the street u will get fined for jaywalking. I would suggest updating the mayor example of good laws to include a definition regarding jaywalking and the extent of how hard the mayor wants it to be enforced. This is the current example "Jaywalking will result in a $500 fine, cross at street corners/the crosswalks we have placed" This example requires mayors to give an example as to what they are looking for. We can even include something that states mayor needs to describe what jaywalking is. "Jaywalking $5000 fine. Must not walk on street, crossing on corners or placed crosswalks only." (throwing grammar out the window bc of character limit when making laws) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So they would have to add that as a 2nd law taking up more law spaces. Unless it could be made where you can make the laws longer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
