New Mexico Discussion Thread

I have a small suggestion. This curve on Interstate 25 at exit 450 is rather sharp, and thus it's difficult to navigate at night. I think it would be beneficial to add curve chevrons to it and maybe even an advisory speed to the advance warning signs (55-60 MPH should suffice based on my experiences driving through this curve). Looking at Google Maps, the real life version of this curve is much gentler than in game, so it has no curve signage whatsoever. But given the differences in the curve geometry in-game compared to the real world, I really do feel that the in-game version needs some more signage.

Code: Select all

I'd suggest also adding some slight banking to it. If that is the Southbound side, looks like the real life curve has slight banking. Banking is done much better nowadays in ATS and at high speeds, banking is the difference from keeping momentum vs tapping the service brakes.

Seems like he just went Swift style on that turn

@Tarso Swift,best in crash

[Tarso]

Keep the shiny side up, rubber side down

But I agree it needs the suggested signs

[Trucker Nik]

I agree with @supersobes when I go here I always crash almost, especially when it's wet, speed reduction would be good

Never had an issue at the curve, it does feel off though.

My truck runs fine! I haven't crashed it. I just drove 15,000 miles without servicing it, so it has 45% tire wear.

Sounds like underinflated tires. LOL
