When driving a car in Dayz I allways find my self lagging, when im going 50 km/h or lower. It lags so mutch that my screen stops and the car keeps going random until it stops in a Wall or someting. I have allready build 3 car because every time i build a new one i crash because of this bug. It is starting to look like you cant have a car in this game. Btw the lag usualy ocures when we are coming to a city we have never been.

Get a driving car and go to a city you have never been. Once you get the car going like 30-45km/h the game will stop at any time. And it will drive random until the car crash
Event Timeline
fyi... This is a well known issue. Lag is usually worse in towns / cities and players can experience "spikes" where their screen freezes but to others the car appears to keep going and a crash usually follows.
My suggestion would be to keep your speeds at or around 20 KPH in "high risk" areas and not much over that out in the open if you want to keep a vehicle for any length of time. Typically, when you're under 20 KPH the impacts are not damaging IME if you do crash. Also, when your screen freezes, immediately squeeze the L2 button for the brake until things return to normal again.
