Module 1: Skid Plate
Overview
Nearly flat track (decline of not more than 2%) with two rows of water obstacles (appearing automatically when a vehicles runs over the induction loops in the road surface).
To create a slippery surface, the low friction surface is irrigated with water overflow.
Exercises
Before vehicles enter the slippery training track, they run over a hydraulically operated skid plate (rear wheels are pulled sideward, causing them to slip).
Enables practicing
- Slalom driving
- Emergency braking, braking comparison
- Stabilizing a skidding vehicle
- Distance exercises
