Total of 95 lateral obstacle tests were conducted with two tracked and three wheeled vehicles; principal conclusions from these tests were that vehicle performance, in terms of speed made good in array of vegetation assemblages, can be correlated with density of vegetation assemblages expressed as mean obstacle spacing; minimum obstacle spacing required to permit movement of vehicle can be computed from vehicle width and speed; speed which vehicle can achieve when maneuvering lateral obstacles is significantly affected by slope of terrain.
