Quick Tips: How to do a Traffic Stop
Set necessary Keybinds
- You need to set two keybinds in order to do AI Traffic Stops. Navigate to GTA Settings - Keybinds - FiveM and search for the following keybindings:
- POLICE: ALPR Keybind
- POLICE: Traffic Stop Keybind
- Now set those two options to any key you want. Preferably keys that are not used by anything else yet.
Enable Plate Reader (ALPR)
- Press the key you bound for POLICE: ALPR Keybind, which will enable the Automatic License Plate Reader.
- Now the car you are driving will always scan the license of the vehicle infront of you and tell you various information about the car/driver.
Initiate Traffic Stop
- You need to have a reason to stop the vehicle infront of you.
- The License Plate Reader will tell you if the driver is wanted or if something is wrong with the vehicle.
- For Example: If the Plate Reader tells you that the driver is CLEAN but the license is EXPIRED, you can proceed to stop the vehicle.
- To do that, you press the key you set for POLICE: Traffic Stop Keybind and then enable your emergency lights to initiate.
- The car you stopped, either stops, or starts running from you.
Do the Traffic Stop
- Your main Traffic Stop menu will be F5 - Police:Tools, which has various options you can use.
- Ask for ID, Run ID, Bac Test, Warn, Ticket, Detain, Handcuff, Detain in Vehicle, Frisk, Grab, Tow Vehicle, Search Vehicle, Impound Vehicle, Arrest, Release
- To complete a Traffic Stop, you need to find out what the stopped person has done wrong.
