Parking sensors
Trucks could use with parking sensors to help park, especally if you are a bad driver like me. Can someone make a mod for it to help us bad drivers?

There is a mod in the workshop that has cones to help with parking.
Both ETS2 and ATS have it.
Answer the question guys.:steamhappy:

The best parking sensor is probably pressing 3 (top view).

You could just switch to another camera angle by using the keys 1-8, but the best one to use is probably 2. The best thing to do when you're new to the game is to choose the easier way to park , or just practice a lot with the different camera angles.

The Truck itself is not that hard to park.
Are there even parking sensors on trailers in Real life?

Nope, not that i am aware of. Wouldn't even make sense if you think about it. Parking Sensors only monitor the last "few" centimeters. Most people ingame, i guess, have more of a problem getting an idea how much to steer left or right to get the trailer in a straight position at the parking spot, regardless of initial angle. And to help with that, it would need a guidance system.

Anyways, OP - as others have suggested. Make use of camera mode 2. That way you can see your surroundings. The rest is practice, practice, practice. A normal trailer is not that hard to back up. You will get used to it sooner or later. Takes a bit of time, needed that myself to memorize that as the only thing i back up in real life was and is my car. But you will get there.

European trucks these days do have _some_ sensors, but nothing to rely on. It's mostly on the box trucks with no trailer.
