The Basics
As a Road Crew worker, your job is to provide vehicle towing and repair services to both civilians and the police department using the provided equipment and vehicle. These services could include impounding vehicles at the request of police, performing impromptu repairs on cars, or towing a destroyed car safely off of the road.
Road Crew workers can communicate with each other using their radios and the /roadcrew or /rc chat.
As a government employee, a Road Crew worker must do their job properly while obeying the law in accordance with the Server Rules.
