EVALUATION OF A VEHICLE CARRYING DEVICE FOR SIMULATION OF LOW FRICTION-SKID-CAR

UTVARDERING AV FORDONSBARANDE ANORDNING FOER HALKSIMULERING SKID-CAR

The report describes the evaluation of a vehicle carrying device for simulation of low friction-- Skid-Car. The evaluation was carried out in three STET phases: I vehicle dynamic comparations, II educational effectiveness, and III expertsubjective judgements. The results indicate that Skid-Car should be able to serve as an useful alternative instrument for the training of driving in low friction conditions.
