4WD Driving

 


Avoid sharp turns, excessive speed and abrupt manoeuvres when driving this vehicle:

Sharp turns, excessive speed and abrupt manoeuvring of this vehicle is dangerous as it could result in the increased risk of loss of vehicle control, vehicle roll-over, personal injury or death.

This vehicle has a higher centre of gravity. Vehicles with a higher centre of gravity such as utility and 4WD vehicles handle differently than vehicles with a lower centre of gravity.

Utility and 4WD vehicles are not designed for cornering at high speeds any more than low profile sports cars are designed to perform satisfactorily under off-road conditions. In addition, utility vehicles have a significantly higher rollover rate than other types of vehicles.

Drive carefully when the vehicle is loaded by lowering vehicle speed and applying the brakes earlier:

Abrupt manoeuvring and sudden braking when driving a loaded vehicle is dangerous as the driving behaviour of a vehicle with a high centre of gravity is different when it is loaded compared to when it is not, and could result in the loss of vehicle control and an accident.
