Post more info. Are you using a wheel, mouse/keyboard or controller? Mods? etc.

game pad, could be a joystick pull issue possibly require cleaning or redoing the game controls axisesus (darn that words proper spelling)

wheel, similar to game pad... but if its hardware not game setting id have 0 clue if you could get in there to clean what needs cleaned if thats even a potential cause... ive never had a wheel.

keyboard, might have a sticky key maybe?

mouse, might need to clean it... maybe your hand is drifting and you dont notice... or possibly if its a thing the axisesus need adjusting

(I use keyboard to steer [taptap tapity tap] and while i used mouse steering in ETS2 i never had the veering drift issue)

No, it's not the correct spelling. Not even a real word. Not sure what you were even trying to do there, lmfao.

Plural is: axes. ;)

For OP: Where do you have the slider for Driveshaft Torque set? When pulling heavy loads, this can cause the truck to pull to the right during acceleration.

I have a new keyboard. ill be driving straight on the highway or any road after a couple of mins the truck just suddenly veers to the right and its always to the right. Thank you DCMT ill try your driveshaft torque method and see what happens. FYI the loads i drive are normal trailer loads, but ill let you guys know if it works.

keyboard the arrow buttons to steer and accelerate/decelerate

Maybe try remapping your steering/accel. to other keys like wasd just to rule out a faulty arrow key. Also the steering is very jerky at full speed unless steering sensitivity is turned way down in the controller options.
