I'm making a racing game with almost realistic cars in Pygame. I made the cars successfully and I want to make the car move a bit slower when it's not touching the drive way. For that, I want to use Pygame mask collisions. Instead of using bounding boxes, they use the pixels and count them based on how many pixels of something are touching something. This all works correctly, but when I use the cam.follow_object(player) function, the game behaves very weird and there rise unexplainable bugs.
I included each individual picture and file, but I also included it on GitHub because I know it's annoying to download all images one by one.

See PyGame collision with masks. You need to calculate the offset between the car and the map when you get the overlap area of the masks:
class Level:

# Calculate the overlap between the car mask and the background mask

overlap = self.bcg_mask.overlap_mask(self.car_mask, offset)
# Fill the screen with the background color
screen.blit(self.road.convert_alpha(), (self.x, self.y))
screen.blit(overlap.to_surface(unsetcolor=(0,0,0,0), setcolor=(255,255,255,255)), (self.x, self.y))
# Print the overlap count to the console
print(overlap.count())
