How fast do you maniacs drive?

[Catratio]

I saw in some other threads people expressed dislike at the 55 mph speed limit of California. It made me wonder what speed you all prefer to drive at?

I try to keep it to 55-60 regardless of state because it takes so long to brake and some of the lanes ending, or stop lights, or whatever come up with not a lot of warning. I like to just have slow peaceful drives.

i follow the speed limit

I stick to the speed limits. The game gives plenty of time to make deliveries and I have never seen the sense to drive faster. Like you, I enjoy the relaxed drives.

"How fast do you maniacs drive?"
Never fast enough,well you asked :).

As fast as my truck can actually go on any given road. I know ATS and ETS2 are simulators but to me they are "video games" before they're simulators, so full throttle everywhere is the only answer to speed limits :P

sticking to the speed limits on both ETS2 and ATS, however i can go faster but that requires i learn the limits of the vehicles and from that it is a trivial matter when to be at the right speed and not to be.

I 'play' simulators for the immersion factor, so I tend to follow the 'rules of the road' and that includes the speed limits.
I have broken a few speed limits recently, driving the Skoda mod, but that was mainly because I just wasn't used to it's rather peppy acceleration... lol

Warp 10 is to slow.....

I bet if you 'speed demons' had to live your lives as fast as you like to drive in this simulator, you'd all be dead in less than a week... lol
Good thing you don't have to though, I actually like some of ya, even if you are kinda wierd...

I don't stray far from the speed limits. I do like California driving and its speed limit: Stay Alive At 55! The real treat to California driving is that there's maybe a tenth of what the traffic is like in real life, so that makes cruising sweet. Until SCS started to really improve their scenery, I appreciated what Cali had to offer. Now I still like it but wish the devs would make another pass to improve some of the older looking stuff, this despite their last efforts to improve the Golden State.

Good u brought that up actually, i respect the traffic rules in real as in simulator games, if i have to rush in a game, i feel that i ain't enjoying it anymore, i drive using cruise control most of the time, one weird thing though even though i unchecked the speed limiter option, i still can't drive any faster then 65 m/hr when trailer coupled uncoupled yes i can go harder but soon i have a trailer on, there is the 65 again lol so even if i wanted to drive faster i'm simply not able too lol...

[Machine Elf]

i like to see my truck top speed without a trailer..after that i usually go within speed limits.. -)

[sonuag]

I follow the speed limit though if i'm gonna be late for a delivery (which is never), i go at the top speed of my truck at 105 mph

This limit is forced when taking External Contracts. Freight Market jobs wont be limited if the options is disabled.

Generally, I keep to the speed limit. It’s more relaxing just chillin’ and drivin’.
