When it comes to real life, the intersection on the CD road makes no sense

[dragonslayingmaster1000]

I figured I would talk about this to counter this thread which was made about a month ago. The yield signs on the CD road make literally no sense in real life and there is no reason that the CD road has to yield for people coming from the off-ramp. I even see admins kicking people sometimes for not yielding to people coming off the freeway even though in real life it's the opposite and the off-ramp always has to yield. The fact that people yield for people coming onto CD road holds up traffic for about a hundred people on each side. I believe that people should just keep driving and the traffic would not be as bad there because there are way more people on CD road then people coming onto it from the freeway.

 

Tell me what you guys think of this.

Hello,

in reallife people who comes from the highway have to give way to country road.

But as you can see ingame the "Give Way"-sign is for people who drive country road. ANd we have to follow the given rules from the game. Alsop if it's different from reallife, please follow the signs & rules from the game.

They made that because in single player highway has more cars compared to the country road. If you leave the traffic desinty at it's stock value it won't cause a problem but since you can tweak it (most people will do that in singleplayer to have more fun) it will cause a huge traffic jam in highway. This game is created based on the singleplayer ai not the TruckersMP.

@Tactical Oguzhan Never knew that SCS actually had a valid reason for doing this but in multiplayer this is the exact opposite and highway should have to yield to everyone already on the CD road.

It's actually pretty realistic if you ask me. Things like this do happen in real life, they're just somewhat rare. Not every intersection and part of road is always a perfect, premade layout in real life.

I think most of these intersections are from the original game (Germany, mostly). As SCS rebuilds Germany, it's pretty likely you're going to see it appear less often, and hopefully, completely mitigated. I wouldn't sweat it too much. They'll all be gone Soon™.

@Curve The intersection is not in Germany but once they eventually get to reworking Belgium and the Netherlands that intersection should hopefully be realistic. Another thing I hate is those freeways that go into one lane for exiting and one lane to keep going. I see they are starting to eliminate those in the rebuilding Germany project and making exits into a new lane instead.

Yes! At least the GPS now warns you with arrows to let you know to move over a lane. That was an enormous help with those terrible interchanges.

To make it simple for routing the GPS and make it easy way though these intersections was not existing in real life but it connects the High way to Country road. It is easy for you and the game itself to control traffic jams and also can be used to set alternative routes

That's on many off/on- ramps in ETS2. It's really annoying for me, because I drive in reallife too and it's just annyoing and confusing driving in ETS2mp, because then I break rules that are WRONG because the basically make NO SENSE.  Whatever, we need to accept it and hope it will change in the realistic way again.
