Your goal
Travel five kilometres without losing all three lives. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. Follow this game’s rules rather than another version’s.
Step by step
- Start driving.
- Steer around traffic.
- Avoid collisions.
- Reach the distance target.
Controls
Pointer, arrow keys or held Left/Right. Start / pause and New round are available. On a smaller screen, keep the active part of the board within view. Make sure you are interacting with the game rather than the surrounding page.
A useful example
Choose an empty lane early rather than passing through a car. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Take a moment to compare.
Watch out for this
This is arcade avoidance, not 3D vehicle simulation. Check the rule before repeating the action. When a decision goes wrong, compare it with the common mistake described below. Start again only when you intend to leave the current round.
