As an island nation, it is not connected by land to the rest of Europe, and can only be accessed by ferries or trains through the Channel Tunnel. It shares border with Ireland (via Northern Ireland), but it is not shown. The United Kingdom is different from most countries in Europe, as it is being one of the very few countries to drive on the left. The United Kingdom is home to one of the most northern territories in the game known as Scotland. In addition, the speed limit of 97 km/h (60 mph) on British motorways is the second-highest in the game behind Bulgaria and Romania tied, which have speed limits of 100 km/h (62 mph), and as other countries have speed limits of 80 km/h (50 mph) or 90 km/h (56 mph).
Accessible Cities
The UK was first featured briefly in Euro Truck Simulator Gold Edition, after which SCS released UK Truck Simulator, where the UK map was greatly expanded to include more cities, including three Scottish and two Welsh cities. This map became the basis of the UK map in Euro Truck Simulator 2, where SCS made only minor modifications.
The following table shows all accessible British cities and towns in UK Truck Simulator:
In total, 18 Motorways and 16 A roads are featured in UK Truck Simulator. Upon initial release, there were only 14 A roads in-game until the road between Southampton and Dover was added.
