This add-on brings a backup-camera-style visual aid to American Truck Simulator, drawing guide lines on the ground to help drivers judge trailer position while reversing and lane placement while driving forward.

While reversing, color-coded lines trace the path your trailer or truck will take, shifting from red to yellow to green as distance increases. A separate blue line appears in forward gear to help you stay centered in your lane, stretching farther as your speed increases. Both lines respond to real steering angles and work with single, double, or triple trailer setups, including self-steering axles.

A customizable settings file lets you adjust line distances, height, and the keyboard shortcut used to switch between display modes. This tool is ideal for drivers who want extra precision when backing into tight spaces or staying properly positioned on the road, especially those running longer or multi-trailer combinations.
