A guided ground vehicle (12) that travels on a track (16) having an electric contact rail (18) for supplying electricity to the vehicle, the rail including several electrical circuits (20), each electrical circuit being connected to at least one electric switching member (28). The vehicle includes a device (32) for managing a derailment of the ground vehicle and generating means (30) for generating a control signal for controlling one of the electric switching members connected to the electrical circuits (20) positioned across from the ground vehicle, to close that electrical circuit. The device includes detecting means (46) for detecting the derailment of the ground vehicle and processing means (48, 54) connected to the detecting means and to the generating means. The processing means are adapted to deactivate the generating means to inhibit the generation of the control signal, in order to cause the opening of the circuits across from the vehicle.
