According to one example, a control system is disclosed. The system can include a steering system configured to direct a movement of a compactor within a compacting area. The system can include one or more sensors configured to generate data indicative of operational criteria of the compactor, the one or more sensors including a speed sensor configured to measure a speed of the compactor over a surface within the compacting area and a controller communicatively coupled to the one or more sensors. The controller can be configured to: receive data indicative of the speed of the compactor from the speed sensor, determine if the speed of the compactor exceeds a first threshold speed, and if the speed of the compactor exceeds the first threshold speed, control the steering system to limit a turning angle to a predetermined value such that a turning radius of the compactor is increased.
