Tips
  • Hiring drivers allows you to earn more cash by having them complete jobs.
  • As you progress, you can unlock skills that improve fuel efficiency and allow for long-distance, hazardous, or fragile deliveries, which can also be assigned to your hired drivers.
  • When your drivers complete jobs, you can choose where they unload the cargo. A 'desired spot' offers more experience points but is harder to park, while a 'safe spot' is easier but offers fewer points.
