I look to monitor this on another device as it can be useful to 'look ahead'. Systems like Google Maps etc have traffic information that can inform you of delays, queing traffic. I sort of use the map as a means of doing this and checking ahead at places I know may become congested. Thank you for keeping it up-to-date

I see there seems to be a lot of negativity in places that get busy. Personally I enjoy the challenges of having to progress through difficult traffic. Plan my routes around it where possible, but if not - simulation - deal with it. In real life if there is a road I don't like driving, I find an alternative route. If people don't like driving in Duisburg then enjoy the rest of Europe! I think going to Duisburg is the risk you take and you get from it what you like. The NCZ for me looks terrible and just funnels traffic to a pinchpoint further away. If you wanted to change this in the most realistic way, look at making the roads one way. Although I appreciate this makes the F7 challenging to get to it may mean two lanes of traffic can come in (right lane for the F7, left lane for the rest of Duisburg. Yes, 100% the issue is the players. The crossroad would flow properly if you prevented players stopping in the middie of the junction and the traffic lights are adhered to. I appreciate this in an ideal world would be policed 24/7 by TMP moderators but of course is not a desireable task nor a feasable one.

I would not mind advertisements if they were managed internally and not provided to give gain to VTC's etc. My thoughts is far and few advertisements and perhaps instead be for charity support, official events. I am mindful there would need to be a level of moderation to managing these if open to all to invest into that is extra work for the team.

General flexability on visual mod support would be appreciated.

On one hand I see the argument as why an NCZ would be an issue, however a couple of nights ago it took me 30 minutes to drop at a fuel station because people were parking in between the inactive pumps leaving me no choice but to reverse in. They did move but then someone would block the entrance as they were queuing for fuel. I couldn't reverse as people getting inpatient decided to drive right up to me even though I had hazard warning lights and reverse engaged. Reporting them for blocking didn't work and I wasn't sure if it did indeed constitute blocking or not. A lot of people don't realise you need to drop even if you explain in chat. It wouldn't be a problem if people took notice to wherever or not someone has a diesel tanker trailer and kept an eye on chat. I'm aware not all are English speakers. I'll honestly say I don't think there is an easy solution. I've been able to drop at fuel stations for the majority of the time no problem however issues still occur on the occasional drop. Even despite my issue I'm saying NO to a NCZ, as I anticipate there will be more collision issues with it.
