Yes you can, but I suggest getting a wired Xbox 360 controller.

Never used controllers in my life, not my cup of tea really. Is the game ejoyable using the keyboard?
you use the arrow keys to drive though

You can also use WASD

Just bind it to WASD

Can't imagine a driving game not being painful with keyboard. A 360 controller ain't perfect, but the analog is a godsend.

you can also set mouse steering

No not really in terms of the driving. You can map the mouse to steeringand just use the up and down arrow keys for forward and backward, but it is definitely not preferable to a controller or esspecially wheel.

Most bindings can be customized completely.
Arrows keys, WASD, etc.
Mouse Steering, Mouse accelerate/brake, and so on.
You have plenty of choice.

A controller, as mentioned above me, is still very suggested over a keyboard.
The game supports a wide variety of them (as far they declare PC support):
These are the ones we personally tested: wiki.beamng.com/Controller_support
But there are much more that would also work.

You can get more driving control with a controller, but I usualy use wasd controls because it has more bindable buttons than an xbone controller.

An arcade kind of driving style for us keyboard users would be noice :p

I play it on keyboard just fine, but would probably recommend controller or racing wheel

'Don't know about wheels, but a 360 controller'll work. It's just plug and play.
