What are the factors that affect the stability of a commercial vehicle carrying a load, when travelling on a curve?
Pick an answer to test yourself
The correct answer: The speed of the vehicle, the radius of the turn and the height of the vehicle's centre of gravity.
The stability of a loaded commercial vehicle on a curve depends on its speed, the radius of the turn and the height of its centre of gravity. Higher speed, a tighter turn and a higher centre of gravity all make rolling over more likely.
