Increased Road Speed Limits

Description
Increased Road Speed Limits mod gives you higher road speed limit compared to game default. Most of the cities now have similar road speed limit rules for both cars and trucks which your truck also get 110-140 Km/h speed limit at motorways and toll roads, 80-130 Km/h speed limit at expressways, 80-100 Km/h speed limit at local road high speed areas, and 50 Km/h speed limit at city and urban low speed areas. However, certain areas may have lower and different road speed limits as it defined directly to the map which is beyond this mod can handle.

Please note, each country has different road speed limit rules. For example, Latvia limits the maximum road speed to 90 Km/h for all kinds of their roads, whereas in Germany the speed limit for local roads is 90 Km/h and trucks are limited to 160 Km/h at expressways and motorways.


Starting from game version1.49, the speed limit for Special Transports (requires Special Transport DLC) was also increased. Instead of 60 KPH, a maximum limit of 90 KPH is now permitted unless restricted by lower speeds indicated by speed limit signs. Because the front escort vehicle can slow down or stop suddenly, it is highly recommended that you speed up your truck to the maximum only on freeways.

Limitations
To prevent misunderstanding, this mod intended to increase the road speed limits, not your truck speed limits. If you want to disable your truck speed limit, deactivate "Truck Speed Limiter" option in gameplay settings. However, truck speed limiter doesn't affect to World of Trucks jobs (External Contract and External Cargo Market) which is always limited to 90 Km/h (it is hardcoded). This mod also may not working with road speed limits on map mod's roads.


Known Issues
Sometimes you will find that the speed limits shown by road signs do not always match those shown by the Route Advisor. This is normal because the speed limit shown by road signs is hard-coded in the map data. In this case, the proper speed limit is as the one indicated by the Route Advisor. Here are the differences of road speed limit you might find (indicated road sign against actual speed limit):
  • 5 KPH -> 20 KPH
  • 8 KPH -> 20 KPH
  • 10 KPH -> 20 KPH
  • 20 KPH -> 30 KPH
  • 30 KPH -> 40 KPH
  • 40 KPH -> 50 KPH

Troubleshotings
If you find this mod not seems to be working, please temporary put this mod on the top most order in Mod Manager list and start driving. Ideally this mod should be placed on Mod Manager list at higher order than map mods or traffic mods.


Disclaimers
This mod only modify the road speed limits and should support road speed limits to all cities of base map and all map DLCs. The mod will be updated once additional map DLC is coming. This mod primarily runs on latest game public version but should work well on the previous game version.

If you are installing map mods, make sure they're up-to-date too. Put this mod and other traffic mod at the higher priority than your map mods. Also, put this mod at higher priority than your traffic mod.

I'm getting crashes as well and it seems like there's a mod conflict between Real Traffic Density by Cip and this mod. Both have been updated for 1.50 and both previously worked together on 1.49, so not sure what changed.

If this mod work on your 1.49 but not in 1.50, then most probably your other mods are outdated. Try moving this mod onto the top most list of mod manager, or at least on top of your map or traffic mods.

@o.alofs100
Just keep your truck speed to not exceeding the speed limit indicated by Route Advisor or dash GPS screen. At certain areas such as Autobahn Germany you can speed your truck beyond 140 kph. This doesn't apply if you turn off traffic offence option in the gameplay settings, and that also mean irrelevant to install this mod.

hi a question, do you still get fines if you drive 140 km/h?
