Trivia
- The section of west of the junction is still part of , but truckers wishing to follow the Euroroute to the west would find it quicker to turn off to instead.
- The rendered section near Reims is actually Autoroute A344, while the real-life bypasses the city to the south. Nevertheless, most real-life signs on this section of road display . Likewise, the game's rendering makes no attempt to sign the road near Reims separately.
- The cutting rendered in the game between Metz and Strasbourg is different from its real-life counterpart, in that the real-life feature is on a curve convex towards the north, but the rendered cutting is convex towards the west, which means not only the cutting (and the bridge over it) is turned 90 degrees, but the highway also curves in the "wrong" direction inside the cutting.
