Guest Posted July 8, 2020 Share Posted July 8, 2020 Anybody else have this problem. I drive through they are green but turning to amber as I'm driving through, I carry on naturally as you would and get a fine for red light jumping. Really? I'm meant to stop half way through the system? It's come to the point now where I stop even if they are green and wait for them to change to red then green again to avoid a fine.

LetiFreshi Posted July 8, 2020 Share Posted July 8, 2020 I have never really had that problem if I remember correctly. However, I have also disabled the fine feature in my game settings. By disabling it, you won't receive any kind of fine anymore for example when you jump a red light or when you're going too fast. I would recommend you doing the same, as waiting for a green light in order for it to change into red and then green again just to not receive a fine, would be no option for me.

It may come to that, I'm trying to keep the realism up as much as I can and I get the fine isn't massive but it's annoying that by the laws of the road I'm actually not breaking them. May have to take it to the courts and appeal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strad Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 It happens, What I do is I usually slow down upon approaching a traffic light, this allows me to have the ability to stop IF the light turns red. Also, I always have my fingers ready on the brakes at any given moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zysto Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 The fines for red lights are a bit weird, sometimes you cross the light while it being yellow and you still get a fine, while at other times you clearly cross a red light and don't get a fine. I understand using it for more realism but it's just not that well made, that's why i have fines disabled Best Regards Zysto Have a nice day!

Slim3y1 Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 Sometimes if you have a longer trailer and its near the end of the green light it might turn red without you knowing. And since it turns so fast in some areas it could go from green to red in a matter of a second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChristianD. Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 Hi, I have switched off the fines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.Quality Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 I also have switched off the fines, as they can be distracting whilst driving. On TruckersMP, you are allowed to go through a red light as long as there are no other players in the vicinity, however I usually wait for them to turn green for realism and added safety.

Guest Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 I Recommend Using Traffic Lights To Make The Game More Realistic But You Can Turn It Off If You Don't Want It Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 25, 2020 Share Posted July 25, 2020 ive never had this problem, however i have noticed that some traffic lights don't change properly in places like Amsterdam, they go from red to amber to green but they only go from red to green.

TheCanadianTrucker Posted July 25, 2020 Share Posted July 25, 2020 @Bailey_did_it To my knowledge, the Red to Yellow to Green isn't a European wide standard and is up to the individual countries to use. I believe it started to allow drivers time to shift their cars into gear before the light changed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Berk Bozkurt Posted August 9, 2020 Share Posted August 9, 2020 I've Never Encountered This Error Before. If This Bug Is Disturbing You, You Can Turn Off Penalties From Gameplay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-Elvis- Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 you are witihn your rights to keep going if its amber as it has not changed at the moment you are driving if you can stop before the light or changes before then well you stop but in any other case you continue as you are not breaking any road rules but yes I have had that many times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LouisMaurice Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 I would suggest to turn off penalties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anthro _Pony Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 Always happens to me too Its always rude when it happens Eventhough I dont get fines when it changes amber on my halfway, but Im always afraid if anyone in the other side rushes into my way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mineiro Uai Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 I believe that there is a traffic policeman controlling the traffic light right when you're passing (kkk) ... Stay tuned !!! To avoid this problem, disable the traffic violation mode. You can do this and continue to respect traffic signs and rules. Nice trucking, guy!

MadCowTransport Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 Yellow doesn't mean "carry on" it means "slow down and prepare to stop." If the light turns red while you are still underneath it, it still counts as running a red light. It's like that in real life too. It is only legal to pass under a yellow light if you have enough time to completely pass it before it turns red. You have never truly trucked unless you have trucked with a MAD COW!

[NT-CRC] Gtz Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 Fortunately I have never had this issue. Does it happen in both games in your case? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemonlittlesweet Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 When you meet a traffic light you need to reduce your speed.If it is yellow it means you have to reduce your speed.But if it is green,speed up and rushed over it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaxiZockt13 Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 Hey, you can easily turn these fines off in your game by going to InGame Settings, going to Gameplay and turning off the fines But I know the problem As already said above, as soon as the traffic light switches from red to yellow, most players accelerate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
