    Driver skill can have a small effect on driving related crimes in the new crimes system.

    I suggested something similar to this in the past I think! OR at least talked about it with faction members. After A class and 250 wins, no one really races much... Our developers have put a lot of time and …

    no affect on crime as those are racing driving skills. different from driving skills needed for getaways, car chases, etc where you have opposing traffic.

I was just thinking about this driving skill and how it affects the racing outcome. Just a small suggestion for consideration, shouldn't driving skill affect the success rate of driving related crimes? (drug transport and GTA)
In drug transport crimes, the outcome indicate how narrowly we escaped getting caught this I think should be at least remotely related to driving skill. Thoughts?

I think that it should have a small effect.

There are a few crimes which mention car chases, and I think it would be good if your driver skill helped with the outcome.

High driver skill = higher chance of success
Low driver skill = lower chance of success, and possibly a crash which results in hospitalization.

I have no idea if this would be possible to implement, or how it would work. I just like the sound of it.

Shouldn't driver skill be renamed to racing skill or something then?

As there are only 3 official race courses in Torn (these being speedway, stone park and mudpit) and the rest of them are street races, it's pretty safe to assume that most races have other traffic.
