Kazuma Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 Suggestion Name: Adding new convoy rule Suggestion Description: Convoys should be allowed only on motorways with 2-3 lanes Any example images: Why should it be added?: Because slow convoys on 1 lane roads set back others and when they overtake them there may be accidents. Following a convoy with extremely slow speed is annoying but we cant even overtake them because we might be banned for that if we cause accidents Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FirestarteR93 Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 How are we going to control that? - people will just say "no, we are not driving in a convoy" and still go through any road they want (before someone says "well look at their tags" - changing your tag takes only few seconds and can be done without even stopping your vehicle) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zyder Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 I don't agree with this. I have been in the situation many times where I have been blocked by Convoys, using 2 or 3lanes. Just because you want to take part in the convoy, doesn't mean other's do too. Simple solution: If you don't like slow speed, don't go in convoys. If you are worried about getting banned for accidents, don't go in convoys. I think you can see what I'm getting at here.

Leff12345 Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 There will always be that debate about rules and restriction for convoys, so that will probably never be solved or being applied as rules. But from my view, I do also disagree as there isn't really a crisis if you happen to come behind a convoy on a one lane road. And, how often does that really happen?

[SK] - TeR*Qiu Ye Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 I think, we need respect every convoy. We can't just go stright and strike others trucks. When we meet a big convoy, we should following them or overtaking them. I also have my convoy, so many people really like to insert into our team, and we have to stop, that always confuse me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On a more serious note, just be patient and stick behind the convoy. "Better late than never" Have a problem with your ban? Make an appeal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FernandoCR [ESP] Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 What would you think if I suggested that no one should be allowed to drive faster than the speed limit on 2 lanes/2 ways roads? I drive 60 Km/h on those roads in Germany (because I like to follow the speed limits) and I'm sick of having to deal with players coming 90/100 Km/h, overtaking without caring about safe distances before merging in or even if some other truck is coming the other way. In this situation you are describing that other driver who finds a truck ahead coming fast has just these options: Hit the brakes and pray he/she stops in time - swerve right (or left in the UK) and leave the road risking a great damage to the truck/trailer - keep on driving into a huge crash, record and report. The same thing goes for the overtaken player. I've had to pull out of the road or hit the brakes lots of times because of speeders overtaking like maniacs in narrow roads. My point: If you find yourself again in that situation, just stop in a safe spot and give some time for the convoy to get far enough before continuing your trip. You can use that time to grab a drink, stretch your muscles, etc. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So would you follow them the whole time even if they go with 30 km/h and stop almost in every minute? " I think, we need respect every convoy. " Convoys also need to respect other truckers. Convoys DONT have the right to force others to go with 30km/h speed the whole time " And, how often does that really happen? " Sometimes it happens,but the problem is people can get banned because of slow noob convoys.I also got 5 days ban for overtaking a snail convoy and made a little crash, nothing serious damage happened at all but whatever.Causing accident was not my purpose,yet i was threated like a troll..... Talking about trolls i honestly think these slow unorganized convoys are more annoying and cause bigger troubles than the trolls themselves. I think it's a selfish thing by the convoys going on 1 lane roads and when someone overtakes them they would not slow down either which breaks the rules aswell....

The Imaginative Lad Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 Just now, Kazuma said: Ok so dont overtake them? So would you follow them the whole time even if they go with 30 km/h and stop almost in every minute? There are multiple solutions to this. 1) Pull over and have a break like @FernandoCR mentioned. 2) Alter your route away from the convoy 3) Overtake once on a 2/3 lane carriageway where it is safer to do so. Patience is key, you have to go with the flow of traffic. Have a problem with your ban? Make an appeal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[GLI] saeed kamali [CEO] Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 Not bad suggestion but control it is hard... I see a time [SK] TeR team Convoy, more than 20 players on a road!! Load high players make lag too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[SK] - TeR*KuKing*[CEO] Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 Yes, but this is a problem for the team. There are many factors, such as high FPS appear teleport etc., There are individual players to make trouble, etc., 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 Shouldn't be added because, it can cause more mayhem and people not in the convoy, then have to find gaps, which then is a struggle, which could then lead to an accident, which then leads to a ban.......

Zebulink{aus} Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 Most organised convoys will have some sort of communication between the drivers. I know a few VTCs, including the one I'm in, will notify the other drivers of approaching trucks/cars. Those vehicles are then monitored, and if the drivers ask if they can pass, we will find a suitable spot to pull over and let you pass, or maybe let you filter through. The only other suggestion or when approaching a convoy is patience. Place yourself behind, and try to find out the route they are taking and map out an alternative path at the next junction. Banning convoys one lane each way roads (or one way roads) makes it almost impossible for convoys to plan interesting routes, and also closes off access to some cities/towns Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
