Suggestion Name: Trailer restriction / kick protocol
Suggestion Description: There is a core of players who it seems think it acceptable to take unsuitable trailer combinations down the Kirkenes road and the central road in Iceland, and given that the moderation team can not be everywhere, they may be good but the rules of physics kind of get in the way of being in more than one place at once, I am thinking about bringing an old idea back. The multiple trailer restriction protocol, however this would be on 2 specific roads.
Kirkenes road
With this road being steep, twisty and narrow, bad enough with a single truck with one 21t payload, yet players are taking HCTs down there and edited triple combinations. This kind of combination is already illegal in Norway, (currently legal only in Finland), however the nearest F7 for one of these loads is not that far away as the Kirkenes quarry is quite close to the Finnish border, (and sits on the Russian one) so if a player with one of those F7s or is F7'd to that location, then its just a short drive to get back to the start of the road. and invariably with the player mentality of self importance no one gives way, so who gives way when 4 of these are trying to pass eachother as they can not be reversed. This will often result in no one giving way, resulting in the road jamming up so the best idea would be to prevent them going down that road in the first place.
Arakanes to Eyjafjallajökull road (great central)
Here, players like the challenge of heavy haul roads, HCTs and doubles (I myself have tried that road with a 6x2 and a single trailer as well as a 6x4 and a double but was able to negotiate the soft narrows) however the problem comes here when players save edit a triple combination with something like 3 locomotives then expect to climb the icy slopes and invariably failing but they dont give up, resulting in players behind working as push teams. (2 trucks pushing a heavy load up there is not unknown) so there again a restriction on heavy cargo pack loads and HCTs there would be ideal. The icy section in the north is particularly bad with traits similar to the Kirkenes road where no one seems to give way, so if the players can't comply, perhaps it would be best if a robotic enforcement would be better.
In addition to this, possibly ban HCT combinations and triple combinations on the Calais - Duisburg route, they should not be driving those down there anyway, legally they're for Finland only.

Why should it be added?: These kind of combinations are not suitable for the above mentioned roads, and when players take them down there it has a negative impact on player experiences and they dont all get reported, furthermore a lot of players just go down to the quarry, turn around and return with out actually making a delivery or collection from the quarry near Kirkenes. It would also help the moderating team by reducing the report workload for players taking those kind of trailers down there as a lot of players can't even reverse 1 trailer, yet alone 2!
