Traffic Rider — first-person motorbike racing, free

Traffic Rider puts the camera behind the handlebars instead of above the roof. You are threading a bike through moving traffic at speed, with only a mirror's worth of warning.

How to play

Accelerate down the highway and pick gaps between cars. Missions ask for a distance, a top speed or a number of overtakes, and close passes pay a bonus.

Up arrow / WAccelerate

Down arrow / SBrake

Left / Right or A / DChange lane

Tips & tactics

01Overtake close for the bonus, but never between two cars that are already converging.

02In oncoming-traffic missions, ride the centre line and commit early.

03Brake in a straight line. Braking mid-lane-change is how most runs end.

04Upgrade brakes before top speed — the bike is already faster than your reactions.

About Traffic Rider

Traffic Rider is built around a career mode: a list of missions, a garage of bikes and a steady climb in traffic density.

The first-person view is the point. It hides what is two lanes over, so the game is really about reading the traffic ahead rather than reacting to it.

FAQ

What is the fastest way to earn cash?

Close overtakes at high speed. The bonus scales with how near you pass and how fast you are going, so a clean run through dense traffic pays far more than an empty road.

Can I ride against oncoming traffic?

Some missions require it, and those pay the highest per-overtake bonus.

Does it need a gamepad?

No. The keyboard covers everything; there is no separate lean or gear control.

The first-person camera makes near misses genuinely stressful. Love it.
