Increased Road Speed Limit

Description
Tired of too low road speed limit at certain cities and states? Think of your semi shouldn't crawling like turtle at weigh stations? Your delivery job get hours late and the city roads slowing you down?

Increased Road Speed Limit mod increase the road speed limits in the game, allow you to push your truck speed even further along the way. With this mod, you get flat 40 MPH (64 KPH) speed limits in the city and around 80-90 MPH (128-145 KPH) out of the town. At certain places such as Weigh Station and slower speed areas you get flat 30 MPH (48 KPH) speed limits.

Note:
When enabling this mod or get a mod update, initial game loading will takes longer than usual to update road caches. This is normal.


Starting from game version 1.49, the speed limit for Special Transports (requires Special Transport DLC) was also increased. Instead of 40 MPH, a maximum limit of 65 MPH 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.

See "Speed Limit Differences" section below.

No speed limit update came with Halloween event. If you have problem with speed limit at certain areas, please describe it in more details (kind of problem, city/state location, etc). Try putting my mod into higher/highest priority order in case other mods causing the problem.

Beta isn't for you to run mods on. It'd for us(the community to test things out and give feedback to SCS about bugs and things. IF you want to use mods , stay on 1.55
