Truckers code of conduct

[Aussie Trucker]

Two things I learnt early in my career, to disable speedos on rental cars and to disable speed limiters. One comes with a bit more risk that the other given the fines for disabling speed limiters but in a game like ETS there is no repercussions so all is good, lets bring on the ambulance racing

Hee,hee, what ever next Aussie ?; I guess the next thing you'll bring in is racing the Fire and Rescue trucks!

I used to see a few F&R trucks on the roads in ETS but these days I see more of them on flatbeds so they are easy to beat.

Says a lot about the quality of F&R trucks in Europe given the number I see being towed as opposed to driving under their own steam. Buses are also in fairly high numbers on flatbeds in ETS. Then again maybe I'm just going to fast to notice them when they aren't on a truck.

Like the advert said: I saw this and thought of you!

Now that Would take some beating!

That's a Doolans truck, their Victorian Depot is just down the road from me. They cart some massive loads around this country

Dunno how old it is (rego plate makes it about a 2006 registered truck) but there aren't many places they'd be dragging a load like that.

Oh wow! I didn't choose that particular truck picture for any reason, other than it had a 'fast' connection to the subject and it's what the int. exp. came up with when I did an image search for a fast 'Aussie truck'!
What a coincidence that it's from near you!
Do they do general haulage as well or just the heavy stuff?

I really think our friend DeusHorizon is missing the point here; some form of visual inter-active Police presence in game is what I was pointing towards, Not car chases, there are other PC games to cater for that sort of thing!
As Aussie Trucker says, it would be nice to have something a little more than a deduction in your bank balance, however, this would be extremely difficult to implement in the game I'm sure!

I don't miss any points, I want to see just police coming from your back and they will stop you - mainly because of speed or crashes. Car chases? I said,that I'm not for it, I'm for something Aussie Trucker said.

[MOOSE 6733]

Police chases? It isn't a GTA V , but feature what if you speed a lot - police car will show up and you will have to stop.

Oh!Right! Ok, DeusHorizon, misunderstood what you had written, sorry!
What do the letters GTA V mean?

Not often you see a Mirage on the back of a truck

They do some general haulage and towing etc but their bread and butter is heavy haulage.

Pretty much anything anywhere.

I feel sorry for the pilot in the Tojo behind, he's toast when then really get moving and fire up the afterburner
