The paper briefly summarises selected driving characteristics of a set of transport vehicles on a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter chassis with the fire designation DA-L2Z and a braked fire trailer on a chassis from VEZEKO Ltd. with a total weight of up to 3.5 tonnes. The driving dynamics testing was focused on a crisis braking in a straight direction and driving in a circle at a speed approaching the safe limit for overturning the vehicle and/or the truck. These two tasks belong to the basic driving skills that a fire truck driver must be able to safely manage in a crisis on the road.
