valiant_ [USA] Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 SO i may have missed this, but why are we restricted to doubles in the Scandinavia DLC? I'm merely curious as I dont get on and play all that often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 iMatt Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 IRL, they're only legal in Scandinavia (and loads for doubles stay in Scandinavia). So, the rule is that you cannot leave Scandinavia with a double, this would be considered useless traffic anyway. It auto-kicks you if you leave Scandinavia with a double though. (In short, to protect the realism and also headaches of them being on C-D) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 RapidFellow Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 The official reason why they are prohibited out of Scandinavia is because SCS limited them to this area, hence there's no need to take them somewhere else. If SCS would allow them in other countries, TMP would do so, too (probably... but maybe not if they want them to stay away from CD) 3 minutes ago, trucker dashcam said: they are allowed in other countries outside scandinavia but scs wanted it to be simple so they keeped it in scandinavia Doubles are actually allowed outta Scandinavia, but not this kind of doubles. Or at least I’ve never seen one (exceptions prove the rule). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In All Double trailers are only allowed in Scandinavia because there its only legal to drive with it. There also driving Doubles in Netherlands and Germany and some other countries. But! Its mostly a testing program. ( So its in Germany) In Germany your only see Double trailers only in Baden Württemberg. And there only at some highways and small roads. Because only there they have the permission. In all yes, but its not complete legal as in the Scandinavian countries. Thats why its only in .....

0 FernandoCR [ESP] Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 (edited) You can see some "doubles" in Spain's roads too, but not like the ones in the game, the allowed combinations here are the Tandems: Rigid + Trailer, something like this: Spoiler But many people seem to call these "Doubles", maybe that's why some users are saying that Doubles are allowed in many places other than Scandinavia?

0 valiant_ [USA] Posted November 6, 2017 Author Share Posted November 6, 2017 Thank you for the insight everyone. I appreciate it. Well at least C+D won't be any worse than normal... That was my primary fear. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Bull [NL] Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 In Scandinavia, are Long Double Trailers allowed with a length of 25.25 m and a weight of 60 tons. Since 2012, Sweden also has 32-meter Long heavy trucks, with 11 axes and 80 tonnes, they may only drive overnight at the E6 between Malmö and Gothenburg. In the Netherlands, Long Double Trailers may only drive on specific roads, mostly motorways, a select number of other state roads, some provincial roads and municipal roads. Also Germany, Belgium and France have Long Double Trailers ons the road but also they may not drive everywere. ETS2MP Follows the rules, if you would to drive in Europe then you get something as the new Heavy Cargo DLC that is coming you can drive only on a few roads. A normal Tandem DLC would a great addition for ETS2MP, maybe this come in the future of ETS2MP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
