It compares two fire tanker trucks with similar chassis, allowing driving on unpaved roads or in the terrain, that are used by the Fire Rescue Service of the Czech Republic. These are fire trucks on chassis manufactured by TATRA and SCANIA. The deceleration and acceleration characteristics of the fire trucks were monitored and evaluated. Braking distance and deceleration were observed during the evaluation of braking characteristics. To evaluate the acceleration characteristics, a deceleration time and a distance to reach a desired speed were monitored. These parameters were monitored depending on the type of tyres, a test track surface and climatic conditions.otherFirefighting vehicleBraking distanceLongitudinal accelerationArticlehttps://doi.org/10.26552/krm.C.2024.2.5-14
