You don’t have to go to green squares and stop at most plazas. As of this writing you don’t get a bonus for delivering cargo early, so sleep on the clock. For the really long jobs you’ll have time to sleep 2 or 3 times and have time to spare for checking out new towns along your route. (Hit F6 to see exactly how much longer you have before you get sleepy) Most jobs will allot you enough time to sleep once, especially after you put a few points in the long distance skill, which you’ll want to do early on. Don’t bother sleeping between jobs unless the job selection where you’re at is lousy or your rest meter is nearly pegged. Start looking for a place to park after the first yawn, no sooner. Every time you rest it’s going to burn 8 hours, even if you’re not that tired yet. There is no such thing as a partial rest. Running with cruise control it’s easy to get in the zone and miss a speed limit sign. Watch the speed limit signs though, especially in areas where speed cameras are common. *Note: It’s been brought to my attention that the actual safe limit may be 10% over the speed limit. So set your cruise to 6 or 7 over the limit and travel at max efficiency without risking tickets.

You can safely travel up to 9 kph over the posted speed limit without getting cited. Or how many times the distraction of having to constantly check my speed caused me to wander over the lines.īuilding on that, set your cruise tolerance to zero, turn on auto retarder.

I played about 20 hours without it and I can’t even guess how many speeding violations I got or how many times out of fear of getting them I travelled under the speed limit costing me time.
