(See the best response by Nadrew.)
Code:
#define DEBUG

world
    fps = 60
    icon_size = 32
    name = "DemoInterface"
    view = ("31x19")
    loop_checks=0
    
    
mob
    icon='Truck.dmi'
    icon_state="truck"  
    var
        angle = 0
        acceleration = 1
    Login()
        loc=locate(1,1,1)
        ..()
mob
    verb
        TurnLeft()
        
            angle +=5

            var/icon/I = icon('Truck.dmi', "truck")
            I.Turn(-angle)
            icon = I
        TurnRight() 
            angle += -5
            var/icon/I = icon('Truck.dmi', "truck")
            I.Turn(-angle)
            icon = I
        TurnUp()
            if(speed < 10)
                speed += acceleration
            if(speed != 0)
                var/dx = round(cos(angle) * speed + 0.5)
                var/dy = round(sin(angle) * speed + 0.5)
                Step(dx,dy) 
        TurnDown()
            if(speed > acceleration)
                speed -= acceleration
            else if(speed < -acceleration)
                speed += acceleration
            else
                speed = 0
    
turf
    floor
        icon='MapTurfs.dmi'


Problem description:

It`s working fine but the problem is that whenever I use left/right to turn the angle it will stop walking and pause.

Best response
You'll need to write a key handler, BYOND only supports one macro firing at any given time. You'd want to write something that detects when you've pressed a key and released a key, and inside of an action loop you'd determine what keys being down entails.
