摘要
Article pays attention to the impact of using the trailer on driving performances of a studied vehicle combination.The research was performed via extensive experimental measurements. A new methodology of determining a technical condition of the trailer' brakes was proposed and verified, which can be also applied during the regular technical inspection. Various load distributions in the trailer caused the centre of gravity's position of the vehicle was changed, which may increase the risk of skidding or disconnection of the trailer from the towing vehicle. Also, the vehicle's ability to accelerate and decelerate decreased considerably due to the loading up. There were assessed the braking characteristics of the combination of vehicles as well, depending on the technical condition of the trailer's brakes. The importance of this article lies in the quantification of selected factors on road safety in relation to driving with a combination of vehicles.
