What's your CPU speed?

Ah yes - 2.2Ghz

There lies your problem. The game requires a minimal CPU speed of 2.4GHz. You may get it to work, but far from getting the full benefit, and enjoyment.

I have to concede you are right - it is 2.4Ghz, I guess I didnt read the box properly when I bought it. Though quite why as goes installation it said it was ok and met min specs I dont know.

I still argue however that failing to meet minimum specs would cause the game to struggle to run altogether, not to cause a fault in a specific place. Say for example if you had a car with a low performance - it would struggle to go up all hills - not race up all hills, but one - to fail on one specific hill that is not as steep as others would seem a little strange would it not.

tbh - I'd like the devs to explain this one.

I'm not arguing with you however - I realise my CPU speed doesnt meet reqs, but the point is, is that it works completely fine, with much traffic, but in that one place it completely fails - just like centy has shown in his pics.
I will play again, if only to drive everywhere and find if this problem occurs elsewhere on the map. It just doesnt make sense. Will update (when I can).

I know of a few games that don't run well on minimal specs. That's why I never purchase a game using it. I always get a game using the recommended specs. For the life of me, I'll never understand why minimal is even listed. It gives the purchaser a false sense of security, and I find it to be a bit deceptive no matter who the publisher is. This game in particular runs poorly on the minimal specs. I know this because I installed it on my old computer very similar to your specs, and the bugs were endless like everyone else reported.
