LikeWildFire Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 According to the rules of the road, you must never slow down when being overtaken, but instead maintain your speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dumbledore001YT Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 Hey, i am normally driving 90 KM/H. If I am getting overtaken, I drive a little bit to the right side and slow down to 85 KM/H. This makes it easy to overtake correctly in my mind You also don't want that the person you are overtaking speeds up LG Sebastian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[MCG] Kien Giang Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 I often slow down when someone wants to overtake me. Because I simply don't want to cause an accident with them. But if the player provokes me when they cross me, I will not slow down You can see this article to know how to pass properly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Web Developer Kid Fabi Posted March 19, 2019 Web Developer Share Posted March 19, 2019 I enjoy the game in a realistic style. Additionally I always take World Of Truck's delivery, so my max speed is 90 km/h. In 95% cases of being overtaken I don't even have to slow down, cause the overtaker just fly next to me, so sometimes I can't even notice his truck. But generally Yes, if someone is just 10-20 km/h faster than me, I slow down, especially on 2 lanes roads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaitanFox Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 I always slow down if the person overtaking has been keeping distance and waited for a safe time to overtake and just driving respectfully. But if they are just trying to cut in or have been tailgating me or something similar then I don't bother. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silent Death_53 Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 Hello! If someone is overtaking you, you need to help him. And I always do that. Help people! Don't try to be different. just be good. To be good is different enough.

Heavy_Haul_24/7 Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 It depends on the situation. But Honestly: Most of the Time I don´t, Exept he follows the rules and is patient... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chev Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 I will only slow down if I see someone coming in the oncoming lane heading toward the driver passing me. I rather avoid having an accident right in front of me. I will not slow down just due to someone passing me though. Have a question? Feel free to message me.

AussomeGaming Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 I always slow down when people overtake, when the person has cleared me, I flash my lights letting them know they can move back in the lane.

Sticky Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 If someone is trying to overtake me, I maintain a steady course and speed. Normally, I only slow down if necessary to let the vehicle pass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drufsen Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 It really depends on the situation. If I deem it safe for the overtake to continue at a slow overtaking speed I would stay at my current speed. (on most motorways) If I deem it unsafe for the overtake to continue I would probably honk my horn, and flash my lights to alert oncoming traffic since I need to look behind me so that I don't break check someone accidentally before slowing down.

[LazyT] Chickin Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 If I am being passed, I have right of way up until we are neck and neck. I may pull over to allow more breathing room for the pass, but it isnt my responsibility to coddle people who cant judge a proper pass. You can see oncoming traffic on the minimap, and chances are if you are driving too fast to see oncoming traffic to render, you probably shouldnt be passing. Theres a word for people like that on the real roads. Dead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark_Knight1701a Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 Depends on the situation, i've had multiple times where I have been gradually gaining speed after a corner but someone has ended up on the wrong side of the road because they've gone to fast then decided to try and overtake. I've then been blamed for speeding up when i'm actually just trying to get back to 70 again. In that instance, the person who cut the corner at 80 and then tries overtaking unsafely is in the wrong. If, however, it's a regular straight and someone is overtaking safely then sure, i'll make sure they can pass. In a nutshell, if you're unsafely overtaking and causing issues for other drivers, it's no longer my responsibilty, if they're doing it safely then I have no problem with it.

Smiiley Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 I usually do slow down, especially on county roads with just two lanes.

LordBenji Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 It really depends on the circumstances. I'd rather avoid accidents when possible, so if I see the person is slowly overtaking me, I'll slow down, and even more if there's an imminent dangerous situation incoming. Other than that, I just keep my speed for the most part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
