Facts which emerge from investigation are: (1) wobble starts when revolutions of wheel correspond with natural criss-cross periodicity of slung portion of car; (2) period of wobble is just twice as fast as natural criss-cross movement of this superstructure; (3) sharp side blow on front wheel is necessary to start wobble; principles of vehicle suspension.
