BS ISO 17288-1:2011

This standard BS ISO 17288-1:2011 Passenger cars. Free-steer behaviour is classified in these ICS categories:

• 43.100 Passenger cars. Caravans and light trailers

This part of ISO 17288 specifies an open-loop test method for determining the free control stability of a passenger car as defined in ISO 3833, by measurement of the transient behaviour following steering release, starting from a steady-state cornering status.

NOTE The open-loop manoeuvre specified in this part of ISO 17288 is not representative of normal driving conditions, but is nonetheless useful for obtaining a measure of vehicle transient behaviour.
