minus-squarehakase@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkarrow-up58·20 hours agoIt may be because a large enough load could quickly block the driver’s left-side mirror. Oooh, another thing is that a heavy enough load may imbalance the vehicle enough to make it unsafe on turns. Anyone see anything else?
minus-squareprole@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up1·6 hours agoMy first thought was weight distribution, but I imagine there’s suspension technology these days to account for that.
minus-squarechocrates@piefed.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up38·edit-219 hours agoYeah, non uniform suspension or adaptive suspension might be important. Probably not a good idea for 70 miles per hour but it might be a kick ass farm truck
minus-squareblarghly@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up8·13 hours agoThat was my first thought. Either the load will make it uneven, or the lack of load will. Also, very weird wind resistence at speed. But fine at low speed
minus-squareboonhet@sopuli.xyzlinkfedilinkarrow-up14·17 hours agoLarge enough load would escape when braking. No wall up front. Add one and visibility goes to shit.
minus-squareBeUnique@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkarrow-up4·17 hours agoHeavy enough people? Take a 300lb person in the front and a 200lb person in the back and you’re gonna have a bad time making a quick turn
minus-squareTartas1995@discuss.tchncs.delinkfedilinkarrow-up1·12 hours agoWouldn’t wind resistance be a problem that higher speeds? Like with 30km/h, it probably doesn’t matter but 90km/h? Idk.
