ATV Highway Traffic — Controls and playing guide

What you do

Take an ATV through traffic across highway, desert, snow, and city environments. The vehicle changes the feel, while avoiding traffic remains the main task.

Controls

A/D or left/right arrows to steer; W/up for nitro; S/down to brake.

A useful first decision

Leave a spare lane before activating nitro. A clear gap directly ahead may close when another vehicle changes speed.

More about this game

Experience city exploration in ATV Highway Traffic, a 3D driving simulation game featuring all-terrain vehicles. Drive your four-wheeler across four different environments: highway, desert, snowy, and urban settings. Choose your favorite track and rev up your engine in this engaging simulator.

Overview

For ATV lovers, pick from four distinct maps—highway, desert, snowy, and city—each providing unique driving challenges. The game offers three modes: Time, Endless, and Fuel. In every mode, your goal is to cover as much distance as possible while avoiding crashes and collecting coins.

Execute Close Calls

The main objective is to steer clear of collisions with other vehicles. Complete objectives by skillfully navigating through heavy traffic. Performing close calls—passing nearby vehicles at high speed—earns you extra coins as a reward.

Game Modes

  • Time Mode: Achieve goals within a set time limit. Your collected coins are displayed in the top-left corner.
  • Endless Mode: Unlimited playtime focused on performing close calls and gathering coins.
  • Fuel Mode: Conserve limited fuel by collecting power-ups. The game ends when fuel runs out.

Controls

  • A/D or Arrow Keys: Steering
  • W or Up Arrow: Use Nitro Boost
  • S or Down Arrow: Apply brakes
  • Tab: Pause the game

Tab to pause is a lifesaver when you need to take a quick break mid-game.
