Multiple Players in One Vehicle

My idea is relatively simple: What if you could have more than one person in cars, tanks, and trains?
From a technical standpoint, I don't know how hard it would be to implement. But having a passenger in a car or tank with you could have benefits: one driver, and one gunner. In a tank, imagine having not only 2 slots, but even more. Tanks could have entirely their own crews like in real life, including one driver, one gunner for the main cannon, and one gunner for the coaxial machine gun/flamethrower turret. Maybe the driver could even have his own front facing machine gun and/or flamethrower to use when he's not the only one in the vehicle. Also, imagine the potential with artillery trains.
This is all without mentioning that everyone in a vehicle can throw grenades, too. Have extra passengers with no job? Just let them lob grenades at the bad guys from the safety of their tin can on wheels! But why stop there? Let people use their own hand weapons like shotguns, SMG's and flamethrowers from the inside too!
I'm thinking 4-5 people to a car, and 4-6 people to a tank (like in real life). Individual cars on a train could hold even more people. Practically speaking, this would really only be useful on multiplayer servers... but the game could use some more multiplayer features.
Thanks for your consideration.
