I understand there was an unsolved thread a while back where they were unable to address how to make a traffic stop on a bicycle. There is a police bicycle mod that replaces the Scorcher bicycle in GTA. I wanted to know how to stop a vehicle if I needed to, and there's not really a way to stop the vehicle without stopping them at gunpoint or something. I tried Stop the Ped, but it simply has them get out of their car in the middle of the road, which subsequently blocks all other cars behind them. There were a few ideas that came up regarding how to make a traffic stop. I just want to clarify how I did it.

 

First off, I use ELS. I'm not sure if it works without ELS. I'll let you guys figure that out if you want. 

 

1. Add the police bicycle
2. Find an ELS vehicle you want to copy. I just picked the FBI car because I have a minimalist lighting setup on it. I figure the fewer the lights, the better considering the bicycle doesn't have any set for it. Duplicate the XML file.
3. Change the XML file name to SCORCHER. Don't change any of the data in the file unless you know what you're doing. *disclaimer: this will probably add random flashing light reflections on nearby surfaces regardless of the actual light models on your vehicle. Deal with it, or tell me how to fix it because I have no clue.
4. In the Vehicles.meta, located at Grand Theft Auto V\mods\update\update.rpf\common\data\levels\gta5 Locate SCORCHER, and add the following flags to the <FLAGS> area: 

   FLAG_LAW_ENFORCEMENT FLAG_EMERGENCY_SERVICE

    

5. Find <audioNameHash> under SCORCHER (it should just be a few lines from the name, Replace the line with the following code: 

   <audioNameHash>POLICE</audioNameHash>

    

6. Save and close vehicles.meta.
7. Find your carvariations.meta at Grand Theft Auto V\mods\update\update.rpf\x64\data
8. Find the SCORCHER vehicle. Under "sirenSettings" change the value from 0 to 6.
9. Save and close carvariations.meta.

 

That's it. You should be able to make traffic stops now. Let me know if you found an easier way or if I left something out.

 

Also, for those of you saying bicycle cops don't make traffic stops... They can, and they do. They just don't do it unless they need to. You can't flag vehicles down in this game, so it's easier to do this.
