Road Vehicles
List of Road Vehicles:
Notes(*): Armoured trucks carry Valuables, Gold, or Diamonds, depending on Climates.
Accidents
Road vehicles will not crash on their own, even at heavily congested stations and depots.
However they can be destroyed by collision with trains so you should be careful where you build level crossings. Although the lights on a crossing will flash and stop any approaching road vehicles when a train is coming, if a vehicle is already on the crossing and the train is moving quickly, the road vehicle will not be able to leave the crossing in time and will be crushed. The train will continue undamaged.
You can use path signals to close the level crossing earlier and reduce the chance of collision. If you have a double track railway, make sure there is enough room for the road vehicles to wait between the tracks, see the image at the right for an example. Of course, a bridge does the job nicely as well.
A malicious player can deliberately cross several squares of road with railway tracks and use 1 train to create a massive traffic jam and use trains either side of it to deliberately crush the vehicles.
