Bob Johnson Posted February 25, 2018 Report Share Posted February 25, 2018 I think it should be considered to let EMS tag for towing. It would add more opportunities for tow truck drivers. IRL, EMS is able to request tow trucks. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flori Posted February 25, 2018 Report Share Posted February 25, 2018 I think this is a good idea if it worked for AI vehicles as well. Im not sure they will want to give us the power to request players cars to be towed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Johnson Posted February 25, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2018 I guess I'm thinking of situations where only EMS responds and there might be player vehicles abandoned. Just a thought. Definitely would have to be watched for abuse, but I guess the same could be said for police. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And in IRL I cant say with 100% but I don't think EMS call for towing I would more so bet they notify Police to have it done Edited February 25, 2018 by Thorgs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We (fire, ems, police) all talked to the same dispatchers, and all could request a tow truck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Payne Posted February 26, 2018 Report Share Posted February 26, 2018 It seems like a pretty decent idea, would give the EMS something to do when the cops are busy and cant make it to certain places or check on illegally parked cars, but at the same time, they cant act like a cop and demand that vehicles be moved if illegally parked, and shouldn't just tow vehicles without giving someone the chance to move. For this reason i would say probably not, and if it does become reality, the SOP's would need to state it must be a wrecked vehicle in the middle of the road. An EMS should not be able to tow a car that is illegally parked, because nobody would take them seriously, and its not really their job. I would approve if SOP's stated the vehicle must be wrecked, abandoned in traffic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
