Am I experiencing some kind of a problem, or its like this for everyone? I mean in Kotr there were big storms wind, it got dark when when it rained, the other trucks splashed the water from the road, everything was more realistic. Even Hard Truck 1 had better weather than this, especially the water drops on the windscreen.
Phone Offers.
On 'Side-Missions' they do tell you the vicinity to pick-up & drop-off 90% of the time if you listen carefully, and when you accept the mission there are arrow indicators on the map for each part of the mission as you complete them. I never had a problem in this respect. Like in real-life, you don't always have time to write every piece of information down while driving. The time limit is added to the HUD & Journal when you accept it, but you can hear some hints in the conversation. Such as pick-up, or deliver by "tonight, or tomorrow, & quickly, or hurry". Some of the 'Story-Line' missions intentionally leave you in the dark, but that's part of the fun.

The Weather.
This is a programming error. It should get overcast, and the rain should blur the windshield, I believe DonnerWetter (RnR developer) stated that this would be rectified in an upcoming patch. However, I do see wet roads, and wheel back-splash. I also ran across a guy on YOUTUBE who had a code for making the raindrops bigger on the windshield, and the outside camera view, but I seem to have misplaced it. I'll try to get it again, and share it with you guys.

The traffic is set to 1 green light in the "Traffic Density Settings" for this video. I have said all I'm going to say about up-coming patches in the appropriate thread.

Yes sometimes they do tell the destination sometimes there is absolutely no hint about it. And you can't count on hurry, urgent, and other remarks. There was one time when I accepted an order where they said there is absolutely no urgency and the time limit was less than 10 minutes, It was impossible to make without cancelling or failing all current orders. And also there was one time when they said its very urgent, and the time limit was half an hour.

When you accept a mission, there is always a time limit. You have to go to the 'Journal', and look at the missions you currently accepted. Click on each one, and look at the times. There is also a 'Make This My Current Mission' tab there. If you select it, that mission will appear in the HUD, Map, and Time Remaining.

This is a common mistake many people make. They accept too many missions, and lose track of the remaining times to complete them. I now look at all current missions, and complete the ones with the least amount of time left. You don't have to take every Side-Mission that pops up. It's up to you to remember what you have, and keep an eye on them.

I didn't say I lost track of anything I can remember, but HOW THE HELL SHOULD I KNOW if a mission will fit into my schedule or not if I only get the neccessary information to decide AFTER I accepted it?

You may simply be taking too many missions on. This game is a learning process, and I can't give you every detail as to why, and why not things work the way they do.

Sometimes when you accept a mission it will ask you "do you wish to cancel your current task?". Other times if you have a mission uncompleted, and try to go to the warehouse, and pick-up another load, you will be denied. Like any other story driven game, everything is experimental by trial & error.

I spent enough time here trying to explain this portion of the game. Let's get back on topic.
