Description / Abstract:
The test code establishes wheel-slip brake-control system capabilities with regard to:
Vehicle stability, maneuverability, and system function on various road surface conditions, including variable friction surfaces as well as uniform friction surfaces.
Vehicle stopping distance on various road surface conditions.
Not covered by this SAE Recommended Practice are:
a. Radio frequency interference testing
b. Extensive power consumption testing
Purpose - This document establishes a uniform procedure for the road test of wheel-slip brake-control systems on passenger cars, trucks, buses, and combination vehicles.
