Increase Pay/Participation for City-Beneficial Jobs (Towing)
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
The server currently has a significant shortage of players actively doing towing jobs. The vast majority of players doing civilian jobs are focused on trucking, which provides little direct benefit to other players or ongoing scenarios. As a result, when police need a tow (abandoned vehicles, vehicles that are not road-legal after a traffic stop, wrecks, etc.), no one responds. Officers are forced to delete/“poof” the vehicles in front of players, which breaks immersion and removes roleplay opportunities for everyone involved.
Describe the feature you'd like
Two related improvements:
Incentives or adjustments that encourage more players to choose towing over purely self-serving jobs like trucking.
A proper officer tow request system that allows police to call a tow for a specific reason (similar to the existing seize vehicle process). This would give tow drivers clearer RP prompts and reduce the need for officers to delete vehicles in front of players.
These changes would improve roleplay quality for officers, tow drivers, and other players by keeping more vehicles in the world and creating natural interactions instead of forced despawns.
Additional context
Towing is a job that directly supports police and creates organic RP for multiple parties. Right now the lack of tow drivers forces officers into immersion-breaking solutions. A clearer request system (with a reason attached) would also give tow drivers better context and more engaging calls, similar to how seizing already works.

I like this idea. Either way I will def do more towing jobs even if the pay gets changed. I didn’t know it was needed this much in the force
