We also do brake testing of anti-lock brakes as well as testing
with various types of traction control and stability systems.
We test braking systems on all types of commercial vehicles including
tractor trailer doubles and triples, school buses, watercraft,
farm equipment, bicycles, and racing cars. Lateral forces, "cornering
g's", can be quantified if circumstances warrant.
We have also been involved with the testing of pedestrian throw
distances and kinematics, bicycle throw distances and kinematics,
as well as vaulting and tip-over characteristics of vehicles including
SUV's and high CG vehicles.
