Depends where you are. In the UK you'd probably be able to drive at a fairly constant speed over the better constructed crossing on major roads. Minor crossings (which of course HGVs never crossPikkaBird wrote:Your railway crossings must be very nicely made. In my experience, one slows down for railway crossings because they're very bumpy to drive over.
) are a bit different.
Yeah, I tried but somehow I can't make them stick. Considering a better DAF though so I might as well leave it as is.Purno wrote:HYRO ... NYMUS
lol
But ehm... seems you got light bar installed but no lights on it?
Upgrading your DAF gives you the same result as buying a new one, but may end up cheaper because you're not replacing everything. (Buying a new truck means you need a new chassis and cab too, even if it's just the engine which has improved). Unless you plan to give your old truck to one of your employees, I guessHyronymus wrote: Yeah, I tried but somehow I can't make them stick.

Unless you bump into other cars. Truck repairs aren't cheapDave W wrote:Got my truck at level 1 with a loan - but it's good because that adds about 5 thou to most jobs, so the 3.5k daily loan repayment isn't too bad.
Too many toll gatesI enjoyed my first run but I've lost the plot in France haha.
)I've been mainly sticking to the UK, although now I have my own RHD truck I may venture onto the continent more. Driving on the right in a UK truck is no problem, I just have to remember which side of the road to turn into, but I have trouble with lane positioning in a LHD.Dave W wrote:I enjoyed my first run but I've lost the plot in France haha.
). Only on motorway crossings (no clue how they're called in English) I need to remember to stick to the correct lane. I'm used to the left lane going straight ahead, while in the UK it's the right lane 
Yeah, but IRL you'd need to move your headPikkaBird wrote:Eh, the HUD mirror isn't cheating. When you're driving a heavy vehicle you use the mirrors all the time, for positioning and turning as well as situational awareness. IMO being able to glance at the near side mirror is essential, which I suppose is why it's there by default.
No clue what you mean. Could you show me what you want to see, but can't?One thing I definitely miss in this game is a key to lean forward and look around the near side pillar for oncoming traffic, in the same way your view moves forward when you turn to look on the off side. There are a lot of blind spots in these trucks!
