Automated vehicle removal (dis)service
This is an automated citywide system that starts towing vehicles away from the city streets one at a time, using autonomous machinery. The reasons could be such as perceived parking violations, sufficiently damaged vehicles and inability to reach the registered owner. The cars are towed into a junkyard just outside the city and will be processed (recycled, destroyed) in due time. Naturally the player’s vehicle would not be immune to this system. Over time, the streets would be cleared of cars, which is a mixed blessing - on one hand there’s less vehicles to loot from, on the other hand the streets become less obstructed for driving.
The junkyards would be protected, and player intrusion would bring police bots.
The system would be the only one allowed to operate outside the reality bubble. The system should start functioning immediately in the 3x3 or 5x5 overmaps surrounding the player upon game start, and beyond that it would depend on player exploration, possibly in multiple overmap radius around the player.
