This paper gives the main reasons for the occurrence of overturning incidents with articulated vehicles. It contains details of a simple theoretical analysis of the problem, the results of which can be used to give an approximate value of the overturning limit for a given vehicle, from a relatively limited amount of information on it. Details and results of tilt table tests on various representative vehicles up to 44 Ton Gross Train Weight are included along with a limited amount of information on dynamic roll measurements.
