AI trucks on the left lane!?

#1 Post by lukk » 29 Apr 2017 19:33

I have returned to ETS2 after a few months break and I am very surprised by AI behavior. AI trucks on the highways are driving on the left lane!! Since when?? It is very unrealistic and I don't know why the traffic was changed? Trucks should stick to the right lane as they used to! They should only use middle lane for overtaking but they are driving on the left lane even when there is no traffic on other lanes! Fastest AI cars are now driving on the middle lane because there are AI trucks on the left lane. Please fix it.

This is not a new issue, it's quite an old one. It tends to happen because the truck is on a dual carriage way, moves to the 2nd lane as it approaches a junction then the junction adds a 3rd lane, leaving the truck all the way in the 3rd lane where it shouldn't be.

Currently there is no lane limitation in the game to prevent trucks from staying there.

The thing is they are staying there for miles, even when there is little traffic. There should be flag/rule or whatever that tells them to leave that lane asap, this should also apply to lane 2 as they to hog that lane also for no reason, not unless SCS make them do it on purpose just to irritate us :lol:

Moh1336 this is not old issue either. I remember AI behavior from the past and I never saw AI trucks on the left lane before (3rd lane as you call it). Today i saw AI truck switched from 2nd to 3rd lane before junction even if he still had a free 2nd lane ahead, he should stay on 2nd and after junction he should go to 1st lane. Instead of that he switched to 3rd and he kept that lane all the way. I think AI trucks are faster now for some reason and they switch to 3rd lane. This is really strange and I don't like it.

Grimples version is 1.27.1.7.

CARL1992 something has changed.

I have also seen trucks go from the far right to the far left lane and stay there as well, sometimes nowhere near a junction, the game didn't do that before. :?

Nope. This is an old issue. Which lane AI trucks use seems to be random. And they will change to the left lane without any visible cause.

Yep not new and not rare. I see it a lot when i drive.
I also seen the new AI cops do weird things like, they rush to get up on the side of me and then either stay there for a bit then go infront of me and then go out on the side again and slow down and then drive behind my trailer .. :lol:

I suppose it depends on whether you count 12 months + to be new ;)
