The Research Department of the Institute for Traffic Safety of the TUV Rheinland formulates traffic and technical vehicle test procedures. In this respect, objective measurements and subjective evaluations of the dynamic driving characteristics of vehicles have been undertaken for more than a decade. The project described was undertaken to determine if, following appropriate modification, the standard test procedures for motor-cars could be applicable to German Army commercial vehicles of total permissible weights ranging from 1.6 to 96 tons. It was first necessary to formulate category-related specific test conditions and evaluation criteria and to validate them on selected vehicles.
