Abstract

Swedish research on the dynamic behaviour of heavy vehicle combinations and proposed regulations on handling performance are reviewed. Revealed safety problems are listed and some steps towards better safety are suggested. The research was concentrated on the handling performance in a double lane change manoeuvre studied by means of digital computer simulation. The 10 degrees-of-freedom driver-vehicle simulation model used in these studies was validated by full scale tests.
