Section D: Livery Rules

In the spirit of the series, we know you will want to create a humorous livery that will garner attention. Please take a note of the following rules that must be abided by:

• No Political Statements or images of any kind. Not even Vermin Supreme whom we love dearly.

• No Religious Statements or images of any kind.

• No Racial, Sexual, Homophobic, Transphobic statements or images of any kind. These will result in an immediate removal from the serval and you will be ousted publicly.

• No personal attack statements towards a group or specific driver may be present on your livery.

• No Visually impairing decals may be placed anywhere on the glass of the vehicle. If it is found that the decals are causing a problem you will be asked to remove them.

Now that we’re through the don’ts here’s some of the can do’s!

• Parody or Police Liveries are encouraged

• Foul Language is permitted so long as it’s not anything that falls into the above don’ts. We’re all adults driving in this series, so adult humor is allowed.

• Innuendo Based liveries are permitted. Things of the nature like “Glizzy” or otherwise are fine. The livery just cannot be explicit.

• Anime/Waifu based liveries are all acceptable as long as there is no nudity

• You are not limited to the above, this is just a start!

If you are unsure, please feel free to just ask if something is acceptable. All cars will be vetted anyway before broadcast time.
