# Vehicles and Driving

> Documentation for Vehicles and Driving.

* **Roleplay Requirement:** If you drive, you are actively Roleplaying (with minor exceptions). Breaking traffic laws carries In-Character (IC) legal consequences. Failure to serve your sentence will result in the loss of your Roleplay privileges and can lead to a temporary ban.
* **Vehicle Return Policy (24-Hour Rule):** All vehicles left unattended for 24 hours will be returned to your inventory.
  * If a vehicle must be left out for a specific, ongoing Roleplay scenario, you must notify management ahead of time.
  * Vehicles owned by residents with an active mailbox are exempt from automatic returns, subject to management's discretion. In-character, these vehicles will be ticketed and towed.
* **Prim Limits:** Vehicles must not exceed **50 prims** without explicit prior approval from management.
* **DMV Registration:** You can fill out forms for License Plates, Driver's Licenses, and IDs at the [Grimlocke DMV](https://townofgrimlocke.com/dmv).
  * Fees:
    * \$15 Linden for a generic plate.
    * \$30 Linden for custom plates.
    * \$30 Linden for Drivers License or ID.
  * We accept valid licenses and registrations from external communities.
  * You are permitted to use a fake ID or license, but you will face strict IC consequences if caught by law enforcement.
* **Paying Fines:** Fine payments are strictly for Roleplay purposes. If you prefer not to Roleplay the entire court or police interaction, you may post a quick emote in the local RP group stating how it was handled (e.g., *mailed it in, paid online, dropped it off at village hall*). Please send a copy of this record or a Discord notification to the Sheriff or Mayors.
* **Roadblocks & Checkpoints:** If you approach a road that is blocked due to an active Roleplay scene, send a polite DM to one of the participants before attempting to drive around it. This prevents breaking their immersion. If the obstruction is a formal checkpoint or construction site, please wait patiently; it will clear shortly.
* **Vehicle Security & Theft:** Vehicles are considered in-character assets. If left unlocked, they are fully open to theft Roleplay. This rule also applies to any properties displaying the **"RP OK"** sign. If you do not want your vehicle stolen, please check your script settings and ensure it is locked.
