[ChExp] Yuz [UA] Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 This is a good practice, I more often to give way. Do not be like fools who provoke accident. Sometimes, instead of an accident and subsequent abuse, it is better to get good emotions in the form of gratitude, even from the offender.

Cloofter Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 Sorry, I'm late to reply but yeah I slow down also I tend to flash with high beams at night time to alert the truck who has overtaken that he can fit in the gap in front and his trailer is clear.

Millennium1001 Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 I guess it depends on the situation. I guess what you are talking about is when someone tries to overtake you on a 2 lane road and someone is coming from the diffrent direction. In this case i usually try to go a bit to the right and slow a bit down Why Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[WT] Bingo [CH] Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 After watching the video I can just say I never drive like this. I always follow the european traffic rules. So overtaking is no problem for most people. And in general it works like this: The one that wants to overtake must find the moment when its safe enough, then pass and merge without cutting the other one off or causing a crash. So my answer to the question: No I normally don't slow down because either their faster and they overtake anyway or they aren't faster then they can drive behind me and they will arrive at the same time.

Bastet. Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 I don't often slow down. It's his/her choice they decided to ovetake me, why should I need to slow down and lose momentum for example. However, I don't accelerate either, as well it's not allowed to do so if other driver is making an overtake maneuver. Of course, if I see that there's an oncoming driver, then I slow down and often even go to the right if I see he's going to either crash into this driver or me. If he does hit me, well I'm allowed to report him, he decided to overtake me here and created an accident. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cloofter Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 Yeah well, many people follow EU Road regulations yet I follow UK road regulations considering I'm from Scotland. https://www.gov.uk/browse/driving/highway-code-road-safety Since May 2015.

!Mr Nobody Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 I don't drive all that fast anyhow, between 50mph-60mph. If someone is in a hurry with a load I will slow down more, move over a little and let them pass. I would rather do all that than have someone following to close and not be able to stop if I do. That way no accidents and everyone is happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Community Manager Purrie Posted August 18, 2019 Community Manager Share Posted August 18, 2019 I usually drive between 80-90km/h. On highways I just have the cruise control on and do not slow down. On 2 lane roads it depends, but only when needed for safety reasons. It's their choice to overtake after all.

Bolts Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 I slow down if I see someone coming from the opposite direction to avoid accidents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arthur Dion Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 Yes, most of the time I slow down to the one overtake me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 I slow down so they can get pass and not cause an issue or collision with oncoming vehicles. If it is that much of a risk, i normally just get as close as i can to the right hand side of the road with my right indicator on, Horn at them, so they know they can go! Just makes everyone journey a little bit safer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baby on Board Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 I'll slow down.I just want to enjoy the game without any problems. It's also a form of courtesy in real driving life. DO YOU LIKE MILK ? I CAN SHARE WITH YOU ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadCowTransport Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 Honestly with the new speed limit, I never am being overtaken. But before, yes if I knew being overtaken was inevitable then I would smoothly slow down and pull as far right (or left, if in England) as I could... even using the shoulder, when safe. You have never truly trucked unless you have trucked with a MAD COW! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Folatti Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 lt depends on the simuation but we both have to be aware so much that we are being overtaken as who is going over we all have to be aware of what we do Kind Regards, Folatti Languages: English | Portuguese Report System | Ban Appeal | Feedback System | Rules | Knowledge Base | Server Status Need help with something, or can't find a solution to your issue?

UgurS Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 If I am driving a truck that has low HP, I drive between 90-100 km/h so I let them to overtake me. However; if I am driving a powerful truck, I drive between 100 - 110 km/h so I usually don’t let them to overtake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
