A method for preventing a rollover of a vehicle or a tractor-trailer combination in curves, by counteracting a rollover risk of the vehicle by independent regulating interventions, performed without action by a vehicle driver, in a regulation system that actuates the drive and/or the brakes of the vehicle, the method including: capturing the current driving situation and the current load of the vehicle or the tractor-trailer combination as to the current driving position of the vehicle or the tractor-trailer combination, ascertaining a maximum admissible transverse acceleration at the current driving position, at which maximum admissible transverse acceleration the vehicle or the tractor-trailer combination just does not roll over, as to the current driving situation and the current load of the vehicle or the tractor-trailer combination. Also described is a related apparatus for preventing a rollover of a vehicle or a tractor-trailer combination in curves.

In a leaning vehicle, a shock absorber tower is disposed further forward in a vehicle-body-frame frontward direction than an upper-left-arm-member supported part at which an upper-left arm member to which a first end part of a left shock absorber is connected is supported by the vehicle body frame, and an upper-right-arm-member supported part at which an upper-right arm member to which a first end part of a right shock absorber is connected is supported by the vehicle body frame.

According to one embodiment, a vehicle can be implemented with a drive-by-wire controller which operates subsystems of the vehicle such as throttle, brakes, and steering based on electrical signals from transducers on the vehicle controls and without a direct physical link between the controls, such as the steering wheel, and the components of the corresponding vehicle subsystem. In such cases, the stability control feature of the vehicle can be adapted to detect conditions such as oversteering which can make the vehicle unstable and unsafe and can adjust the steering and other controls of the vehicle to correct the unstable or unsafe condition regardless of the physical input on the steering wheel and other controls.

A driver assistance system includes a first measuring device for determining distances from a water surface, which includes at least two distance sensors. First and second distance sensors are situated laterally on the vehicle with respect to a respective side of the vehicle. The first and second distance sensor measure a first distance from a water surface by determining the distance perpendicularly downward from the respective sensor to the water surface. The system includes a second measuring device for determining an instantaneous roll angle of the vehicle and a processing unit, which is coupled to the first measuring device and to the second measuring device. The processing unit determines at least one first transversal component of the instantaneous flow velocity of the body of water forming the water surface, as a function of the first distance, the second distance and the instantaneous roll angle of the vehicle.
