Below freezing, and working in waste disposal - two places you don't want to be in a city during the winter. But hey, it's a dirty job, and somebody's gotta do it. All to avoid bad memories of the 1981 strike during the rough 1996 winter.

Libel, Liberty City's key electricity maintenance team, have got a job to do almost every day, thanks to Liberty City's slightly-outdated power grid. It is rumoured, however, that their vans seem to always be watching certain people in the city. Some say they even travel in packs...

Every winter, the LCPD ESU team hand out their Ranchers to almost every division in Liberty City, sending out most of their stock to traffic and highway patrol divisions. They prove very useful to tackle the treacherous road conditions, beating the Staniers and Premiers of the standard LCPD fleet. Here, at midnight, an LCPD officer sits around, awaiting activity, by the East Borough Bridge, having been granted the keys to one of the Ranchers. Half an hour later, he gets called to technically the first accident of the day on the bridge.

Even driving a little too fast can cause a serious accident in the snow. Here, two LCPD officers narrowly escaped death when their Premier RMP slipped onto some ice, flipped, and fell over on the Broker-Dukes Expressway. While the car was totalled, the two officers were glad to have escaped with their lives, and got out of CHMC a few weeks later.
 
Following this accident, a road safety awareness campaign was set up in Liberty City. While it may not look like it, it is still going strong today.

When watching Initial D, have you ever thought, "where the heck are the Tokyo Metropolitan Police?"
 
Well I have thought that, and I thought I'd recreate a realistic scenario, owing to Japan's crazy street racing laws.

And now for something completely different. This is where I try to do a Lundy or an 11John11 without the camera angles, shaders, or animations, just my imagination.
 
The Civilization Committee: a "largely ineffective organization where representatives from nations around the world are supposed to decide on the best course of action in the event of an international conflict".
 
Also, a sneak peek at one of my WIP mods!

1996 may had been the roughest winter in Liberty City for years, but at least it made for some beautiful pictures. The LCPD were accredited for their hard work, alongside the DoT, for helping Liberty City run as smoothly as possible, in the face of the hundreds of accidents that were occuring. But even they, sometimes, couldn't even manage to drive without spinning out.
 
(Here's the link, if you're interested, for the snow mod. Be warned though, it is a big download.)

And so, normal services are resumed.
 
The early eighties weren't a great time for Liberty City. Still holding onto the title of 'Worst Place in America', a title it would not let go of until the 90s, it was fairly common to see cars dumped in the streets, or wherever seemed humanly possible. On the Westdyke Beach, for example, a Vigero and an Oceanic had been dumped for little over six months, and while it may not look like it, the tide has taken its toll on both of them, especially the Vigero, and they had all been gutted for parts.
 
A few days later, they were set alight.

A fond pastime of mine before I got into screenshotting was throwing molotovs everywhere, sending in riot vans, and smashing up cars, calling it a riot. Here, in London, a neighbourhood disturbance in the run-down Beechwood City area results in a violent conflict with the Met Police, involving some pensioner's Ingot being smashed up and burned to the ground.

And so, normal services are resumed.

And after three nights of revelry, security headaches, and some rather-good music, the buses, some due to return to their depots after they dropped off, drove out to their pick-up points for the last time, filled to the brim with tired, but excited festivalgoers finally on their way home. It had been a long three days for the Liberty City Council and the emergency services, but in all, it had been a great success. And after three days, it was time to pack up, go home, and return to normalcy.
 
And now to close out this gallery series. In the end, it proved to be unique, but also rather taxing and tricky to think about in terms of ideas, and eventually, I found it not to be as enjoyable as I thought it was going to be. Normal services will resume in this gallery:
 

And as the fireworks exploded out over Meadows Park, Kings of Leon closed the Liberate Festival with their final, most-popular song from their new album, 'Sex on Fire'. It was the final time everyone could jump around and have a good time before they took the Park & Rides back into the city one last time, and for the GLP, after all of the security headaches and unusually-low crime rates, it was the last time they could let their hair down and party until they had to go back to work in the city.
 
And of course, they all were dancing.

Its nearly the end of the Coldplay setlist, and just as the buses were warmed up and shunted out to the entry/exit points, a contingent of police officers were waiting outside to help festivalgoers get out of the park by midnight. Thanks to the unique design of the Pavillion, the whole concert could be heard from way outside the park - and taking this opportunity, a constable of the GLP decide to let his hair down while another one just stands seriously by him, just as the last chorus of 'Yellow' finished.

Just as the Coldplay set started, the GLP happened to chance upon a rogue fake ticket seller, plying his wares for the last day of the festival. Obviously, this was illegal, so in a less-intense approach than the wanted man from earlier, two officers and independent security agents came up, arrested him, and put him in a van. He was booked into Cerveza Heights for the time being, but was given a radio for him to listen to - it turned out he was a fan of Coldplay in the end.

Yes, its the back end of September, but its a festival alright, and the refreshments are handy. So why not take advantage of them? With some spare change left behind, this police constable is getting herself a 99p Flake, much to the mockery of her nearby partner.

A GLP Traffic tent was set up by the Red entrance, showing of the fruits of driving under the influence of alcohol - a SORN Willard with some serious impact damage. One of the GLP's famous motorway Vincents was also parked up alongside it, and a local taxi was parked up along side that to advertise a very important message - take a cab after a drink, because if you drink and drive, you might end up like the unlucky driver of the red Willard.
 
Signs would be added if I was better at graphics design.

In the midst of the festival, the GLP happened to chance upon one of their most wanted suspects wandering the festival grounds. Taking this chance, one of the unmarked cars stationed around the area raced into Meadows Park, sirens drowning out an Indie band's setpiece, and joined two other cars filled with officers in taking down #6 on their most wanted list. A job well done, it seemed.
