This paper presents a study on braking-related steering drift experienced in motor vehicles, where the driver must apply a corrective steering torque in order to maintain course. During normal conditions of braking, steering drift was found not to be a result of side-to-side variation in braking torque but to be influenced by the suspension compliance and steering offset leading to changes in wheel alignment during braking which in turn affect the toe steering characteristics of each wheel and therefore the straight-line stability during braking. It is concluded that a robust design of suspension is possible in which side-to-side variation in toe steering is not affected by changes in suspension geometry during braking.
