Emergencies & HazardsCâu 96 / 120
Your load is stacked high in a van trailer with the heaviest cases on top. Why is this dangerous?
a.It makes the trailer harder to unload
b.It increases fuel consumption
c.It causes the trailer brakes to overheat
d.A high center of gravity makes the vehicle much more likely to roll over in a curve or in a sudden maneuver
Giải thích
Heavy weight placed high raises the center of gravity, and rollover risk climbs sharply in curves, on ramps, and during evasive steering. Unloading effort, fuel use, and brake temperature are minor compared with the stability problem.
