UnverifiedThe ESP of an articulated bus needs to coordinate braking distribution between the two sections, and its algorithm is more complex than that of an ordinary passenger car, usually working in conjunction with the hydraulic locking valve of the articulation joint.79% similarUnverifiedModern articulated buses are equipped with multiple protections to prevent folding accidents, including hydraulic locking valves (which automatically lock the articulation joint when the articulation angle exceeds a certain angle), electronic stability programs (ESP), and redundant sensors (at least two sets of articulation angle sensors backing each other up).75% similarUnverifiedOn some high-end articulated bus models, the wheels of the rear axle participate in active steering: sensors detect the steering wheel angle and vehicle speed, an electronic control unit calculates the rear-wheel steering angle, and drives the rear wheels to deflect in the opposite direction to reduce the turning radius.72% similar
