Under-inflation causes flexing and uneven tire wear. This can lead to sudden tire failure. Over-inflation causes a harsh ride, uneven tire wear and poor handling. Pressure checks should only be carried out when the tires are cold and the vehicle has been stationary for more than three hours. A hot tire, at or below E91695 recommended cold inflation pressure, is dangerously under-inflated. The recommended tire pressures are listed on a placard label fixed to the end of the left-hand If the vehicle has been parked in side door. These pressures provide optimum strong sunlight or used in high ride and handling characteristics for all normal ambient temperatures, do not reduce operating conditions. the tire pressures. Move the vehicle into the shade and allow the tires to cool before re-checking the pressures. Never exceed the maximum pressure stated on the sidewall.

  • Hydroplaning Avoidance – a Holistic System Approach
    HYDROPLANING AVOIDANCE – A HOLISTIC SYSTEM APPROACH Bernd Hartmann Anton Klöster Dr. Matthias Kretschmann Dr. Thomas Raste Continental AG Germany Paper Number 19-0256 ABSTRACT Accidents in severe weather mainly arise due to a drastic loss of friction between the tires and the road surface unexpected by the driver. Beside all kinds of slippery winter conditions hydroplaning situations are even more dangerous not just for manually driven vehicles but also for automated vehicles when cruising at speeds above 80 to 100 km/h. This paper describes the Continental approach for a cascaded holistic safety system in imminent hydroplaning situations independent of the degree of automation. First, to reduce the overall hydroplaning risk a continuous tire tread depth monitoring function is integrated to trigger a timely replacement of worn-out tires. Second, a surround view camera and new tire-sensor-based early hydroplaning risk recognition allows an in-time driver warning or a system-initiated speed adaptation in case of automated vehicles. Especially for Automated Driving (AD) vehicles it is of major importance to avoid hydroplaning before it happens. Third, this information is send to the cloud-based eHorizon service so that also other traffic participants can be informed before entering a hydroplaning risk area. In case hydroplaning cannot be avoided a control system is designed and tested to evaluate an innovative assistance strategy in hydroplaning situations. The test cases demonstrate the suitability of this assistance concept. Hartmann 1 1. INTRODUCTION Heavy rain and bad weather conditions involving reduced traction because of wet, snowy and icy surfaces have been major contributory factors to traffic accidents in general.
