Twojpapier Posted January 16 Report Posted January 16 Would like players to learn habits from real life. Drivers in real life when a semi-trailer truck overtakes them, almost always when the rear of the semi-trailer passes them, they give a signal with high beams that it is safe to change lanes This type of behaviour on road is very helpful in safely completing an overtaking manoeuvre, especially in poor visibility or rain, snow So far I've only met a few players on TMP simulation 1 , who knew this behavior. It's nice when others started using it too this is a very helpful behavior for the one being overtaken and the one who is overtaking
Granite Posted January 16 Report Posted January 16 IRL it is the trucks that are overtaken by everybody else and generally don't overtake each other (often prohibited on EU highways).
Sunstrider Posted January 16 Report Posted January 16 When someone overtakes me, i'll leave a gap for them to rejoin. But, some drivers are just reckless and don't care.
Guest If Its Itchy,Just Scratch Posted January 16 Report Posted January 16 Many Players driving Reckless in this Game. I started these Days a new Profile, with World of Truck Contracts only, cause i "love" the Challenge! Even on the Basemap, not the Hot High Populated Areas, Ppl do not obey any kind of Rule and or ramming me purposely off the Road. Fact is, you can not compare TruckersMP with realistic Driving. You can restrict yourself to realistic Driving, as much the Default Game make it possible. But, the most Players do not drive realistic, cause this is not Simulation Game! TruckersMP is a Multiplayer PvP/PvE Destruction Derby Contest with Seduction to Multi Language Insulting Words and Phrases! As Sidenote, driving with a World of Truck Trailer in High Populated Area, is more challinging and dangerous, than wiping poop off your ass, without getting your hands dirty, during an Level 9 Earthquake! And for the Files, i am driving 99.99% Realistic within the Speed Limits for Trucks and the European Road Rules! I streamed the first Hours of my Gameplay, j4f, no Fancy reckless driving, no UI Overlay, just pure boring Truck driving on empty Roads in TruckersMP! The Footage can be used as ASMR Content! If People are interested to watch it, you can contact me! Can help against Insomnia!
Averazon Posted January 16 Report Posted January 16 Besides real life, you also just use common sense and your brain. Trucks usually don't overtake other trucks. Mostly cars only. But indeed, leave space if you see something happening. Ex-Community Moderator

Considering the weight and the speed of the vehicle in front

Mostly cars only. But indeed, leave space if you see something happening. Have you ever driven on the roads of Europe? In your opinion, trucks don't overtake each other? And in your opinion, they don't flash their high beams to signal a safe lane change so that a semi-trailer doesn't hit you. Do you have a driving license for anything in real life i mean ?
JJay Posted January 18 Report Posted January 18 Well, as a truck driver I do overtake and yes, we use high beams to let the other know there is a place for them or let them know we start overtaking. On the other hand thinking that all users will respect it or will do such things on road is a dream. Good to see you have such knowledge about truckers stuff, but we cannot require all of that from all users. 1 Nie ma magicznych skrótów do rozwiązania Twoich problemów. | Ban appeal | Complaints / Feedback | TruckersMP Rules | Join the Team |
Melodies Posted January 19 Report Posted January 19 I think that's something you see more often on Promods actually, from experience.
'Mix Posted January 19 Report Posted January 19 If you go outside of CD road you will see players doing this as well. It can be difficult to spot in the tiny mirrors though. - I'm not saying I'm Wonder Woman; I'm just saying no one has ever seen me and Wonder Woman in the same room together.
InsanoDeath Posted January 20 Report Posted January 20 Some people take this as just a game like GTA 5. They do not understand the meaning of simulation.
Wise Old Owl Posted January 24 Report Posted January 24 I think you are expecting alittle to much as a large portion of the player base lack basic highway code let alone trucker atticate. Many lack the patience and just overtake as soon as they see another truck as getting to the destination 2 secs sooner makes it worth it. Half just spam their horns as they believe it will magically resolve the problem. But I completely agree with you and it would be nice to see and it happened more back in the day. As long as we provide a example for newer players hopefully some may take it on board.
