Hold F at once
Press and keep holding F as soon as the banner shows. Tapping does not raise the shutter.
Do Not Stop. Beginner Guide
Do Not Stop. is a night drive with one rule: keep the car moving until you reach the shelter at the end of the route. You steer with W, A, S and D, drift with Space, crank the window shutter with F and, if you get caught, pick up again from the last mile sign. A second player can ride along and call the turns. This guide walks through a first run in that order.
A public server fits 30 players, but a run only involves the people in your car: you drive, and a friend can take the passenger seat. The code box stays shut until you reach one shelter, then opens from GARAGE under CODES. The four codes on the Roblox page currently pay 850 credits together. Route 1610 is the short first road, about 7 miles, and 62.7% of players hold its survival badge. Whiteout Ridge, the last road, sits near 3%.

01 · FIRST RUN
Your first run, step by step
01
Pick a pad
Walk onto an empty launch pad in the lobby. Choose Drive Alone, or Invite to bring a friend into the passenger seat.
02
Take the keys
Taking the keys at the lot awards Engine Running, the one badge every player has.
03
Start on Route 1610
The first route is about 7 miles long and 62.7% of players have its badge, far more than any later road.
04
Hold your speed
Steeple follows the car. Slide through bends with Space rather than braking, and keep off the barriers.
05
Reach the shelter
Driving into the shelter at the end of the route finishes the run and awards that route’s survival badge.
02 · CONTROLS
Keyboard controls
The key hints sit in the bottom-left of the windshield. Q and E do double duty, so check which gear mode you are in before relying on them.
| Key | Action | When to use it |
|---|---|---|
W | Accelerate | Hold it almost all the time; speed is what keeps Steeple behind you. |
S | Brake or reverse | Use it as little as possible. Every second on the brake shrinks the gap. |
A / D | Steer left / right | Small inputs on straights, then turn in early before a bend. |
Space | Drift | Start the slide as you turn in so the car rotates without losing pace. |
F | Crank the window shutter | Only for the red window banner. Hold it until the bar finishes. |
V | Switch camera | Toggles between the cockpit and a chase camera behind the car. |
C | Look back | A quick look at how close the chaser is. |
Q / E | Glance left / right | Looks toward the side windows in the cockpit view. |
M | Automatic / manual gears | In manual, E shifts up and Q shifts down instead of glancing. |
N | Arcade / Sim handling | Try both on Route 1610 and keep the one that feels steadier. |
03 · WINDOW SHUTTER
Cranking the window shutter
On some stretches a figure appears at the side window and a red banner reads SOMETHING’S AT YOUR WINDOW. A prompt at the bottom of the screen tells you to hold F.
Keep the car straight
The car rolls on while you crank, so steer gently with A and D and stay off the brake.
Wait for the bar
The prompt switches to KEEP HOLDING! while a bar fills. Let go only when the prompt disappears.
F Solo drivers have to steer and hold F at the same time: rest a finger on F during quiet stretches so it is ready.
04 · RETRIES
SIGNAL LOST and Retry from Mile
When Steeple catches you the screen shows SIGNAL LOST and the mile you reached. You then choose how to continue.
| Button | What it does |
|---|---|
| Retry from Mile | Puts the car back at the last roadside mile sign you passed. It only appears while you still have free retries, and the button shows how many are left. |
| Restart | Starts the same route again from Mile 0. |
| Change Map | Opens route selection so you can pick a different road. |
| Back to Lobby | Leaves the run and returns to the lobby pads. |
Mile signs are checkpoints
Numbered signs on the road shoulder mark each mile. Passing one is what makes Retry from Mile useful, so a crash just after a sign costs little.
More retries
The Robux store sells retries, including an Endless Retry. Prices are listed on the garage page.
05 · PASSENGER
Calling turns as the passenger
Every car has a driver seat and one passenger seat. The passenger cannot steer; their console has a DISTANCE dial and a CALL THE TURN keypad that tells the driver how hard the next bend is.

Driver
Owns throttle, steering, drifting and the F shutter. Listens for the call, then turns in.
Passenger
Reads the road ahead, presses 1–6 early and says the turn out loud. The passenger seat also holds the scanner that cosmetic cases fit into.
Solo
With Drive Alone you read every bend yourself and handle window alerts without a reminder.
1–6 Agree on words before you leave the lot, for example “hard left” for key 1, and say the direction first.
