American Truck Simulator
Random & Hilarous (and beautiful scenery) picture thread
I just got through playing and I thought, "There isn't a thread for those pics that catch our eye here or are just funny." So I decided to make one cause I'm tired and I'm in that state of mind. I would like to share this and what I believe is the true backstory to this picture.

http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1094841413

"Good morning everyone, welcome to KECY news at sunrise, I'm Charles Dowling."

"And I'm Allison Kimbro."

Dowling- "We begin with breaking news from El Centro this morning, where we are learning of the tragic death of a video game icon, our Lisa Wong is on the scene with the details, Lisa?"

Lisa- "Good morning Charlie and Allison. I'm out here north of El Centro at the scene of a tragic accident that has claimed the life of a motorist. The CHP has confirmed that the driver of the ice cream truck was in fact legendary video game character Sweet Tooth, real name Marcus "Needles" Kane, who they say was killed on impact when the green Jeep Wrangler lost control making a turn on the northbound lane. Preliminary reports say the accelerator got stuck and the driver panicked, T Boning the ice cream truck, killing Mr. Kane immediately. As you know, Mr. Kane rost to prominence in 1998 with his appearance in the Twisted Metal racing circuit, as well as winning 3 championships in the Hot Shots Golf tournament in 2000, 2001 and 2003. Now CHP is not filing charges against the driver of the Wrangler at this time, though it is still very early in the investigation and when I briefly talked to the officer in charge, he stated the the driver of the Wrangler is cooperating with authorities and so far, they don't believe that alcohol or drugs played a part in this horrific tragedy. We'll have more as this story develops. For KECY, I'm Lisa Wong."

Btw. also screenshots from ETS2 are allowed.

I know historically they have been allowed, but we do also have this thread on the ETS2 forums:

https://steamcommunity.com/app/227300/discussions/0/3460470383685224567

Would Euro shots not be better stored in there, since it's on topic?

Sorry for being stupid it was when I went disabled a year ago that I really got into this stuff so much is unknown to me.
You can do it either from your Steam Library after playing the game and making screenshots or from your profile at the Screenshots tab.
gotcha thanks.

Just as long as they dont start adding deer and making the deer run out in the road.

When your at the border check point but know for a fact your human trafficking or drug smuggling and you dont want the guards to find out.

While I hadn't noticed those in the screenshot specifically, there are quite a few deer around in forests if you keep your eyes open. And in Washington there is actually a road trigger to have a herd of deer run across the road in front of your truck, however it happens way in the distance so there's no risk of hitting them.

I literally think I have deer PTSD now. The last 2 years, no ♥♥♥♥, ive hit 8 deer and atleast 2 more have run into the side of my vehicle, causing no damage. From 1990 to 2022 I have no seen as many deer as ive hit from 2022 to now. Its unreal.....
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3126316519 They still have not figured this out. They just keep reversing back and forth at the same time and ive been stuck at this light

Yeah these AI though. The trick to get out of that is actually save the game, then exit, then reload your save. ALl the AI cars will be gone for a moment. But yeah, these AI.....had a jeep randomly decide he wanted to quality control test his door by pulling out in front of me as im haulin along at 55. I was able to slide on around him, but yeah.

Not as impressive as other screenshots, but here is an AI who apparently saw a ghost. Im at a traffic light in this and the AI decided to stop way back there. Im not in his way, I wasnt blocking the turn lane at all.....

Aw darn, that's horrible, I feel for ya :steamsad: I don't drive myself, but I imagine if I did, hitting an animal would crush me. You have my sympathies for such experiences.

Oh, its less cuz I feel bad about hitting it, but rather cuz the like 8,000+ dollars ive spent on rentals. The 1100 I spent helping my mom pay for another vehicle. Me being without my own vehicle, playing paddy wack with the bank to cover the GAP insurance........the inability for the banks to play ball so I can get another vehicle......nothing like having a job for 2 years and have absolutely nothing to show for it.

The Deer are dumber than a wheel of cheese. I literally had a deer charge at me as I was driving. I saw it, I slowed down and went into the oncoming traffic lane to drive around it. As I got closer, it charged me. I slammed on the breaks and literally turned full broadside in the oncoming traffic lane and almost ran into the ditch, all the while this dumb ass deer was running along side the car...I genuinely loathe deer now, they do literally everything in their power to get hit...

ANother one, I had just started to turn out of a facility after a delivery, im going like 5mph and this baby deer clunks into the side of my truck and commences to run along side it....This last one I hit they came in a pair. I slammed on the brakes and went into the oncoming lane shoulder cuz I was going to go behind them as they finished crossing the road, but instead the back deer stopped and turned around. I slammed into it going like 55. I sent it sliding down the road like 100 feet, it tried to stand, staggered and dropped dead.

My 2nd deer i ever hit I was going like 25-30, had just turned onto a road. I slammed on the brakes down to like 10. It walked into the road, I thought it was gunna just cross. Instead it started walking down the middle of my lane right in front of me. When you have a 10mph over take speed, it comes up pretty quick. I booty bumped that deer off the road, no appreciable damage.

Another deer I didnt hit but I watched it come out into the road, go back on the shoulder, come out on the road, back on the shoulder, it did this like 4x before finally running off into the forest...Ive seen countless deer grazing in the middle of the road....

I swear to god, deer have less intelligence than a dust bunny.

Oh and I drive at night, like 1230-6am, so its always nice and dark out....its hard to see deer at night, they literally look grey just like the road, everything at night just looks dull shades of brown and grey and deer blend in well.

Driving between 4 and 8 PM one night, I counted at least 22 deer in my area. The next week I hit my only deer, thankfully it bounced off the front corner without leaving any damage. I had repainted the car I was driving with Bedliner, which probably helped the dent resistance. I now have installed a number of light bars on that car, and while they are not road legal, on the country back roads I spend a lot of my time at night, there is nobody else around to see or care, so I use them. They have helped me avoid enough deer to be worth their cost, because I can see so much better. Its almost like daylight sometimes, just very directional.
