The tilt test is a type of safety test that certain government vehicle certification bodies require new vehicle designs to pass before being allowed on the road or rail track. The test is an assessment of the weight distribution and hence the position of the centre of gravity of the vehicle, and can be carried out in a laden or unladen state, i.e. with or without passengers or freight. The test can be applied to automobiles, trucks, buses and rail vehicles. The same 28-degree requirement is in place in Hong Kong for double-decker buses. For single-deckers the requirement is 35 degrees.

  • The tilt test is a type of safety test that certain government vehicle certification bodies require new vehicle designs to pass before being allowed on the road or rail track. The test is an assessment of the weight distribution and hence the position of the centre of gravity of the vehicle, and can be carried out in a laden or unladen state, i.e. with or without passengers or freight. The test can be applied to automobiles, trucks, buses and rail vehicles. The test involves tilting the vehicle in the notional direction of the side of the vehicle, on a movable platform. In order to pass the test, the vehicle must not tip over before a specified angle of tilt is reached by the table. In the United Kingdom, double-decker buses have to: "be capable of leaning, fully laden on top, at an angle of 28 deg without toppling over before they are allowed on the road." The same 28-degree requirement is in place in Hong Kong for double-decker buses. For single-deckers the requirement is 35 degrees. (en)
  • 傾斜測試(英語:Tilt Test)是監管機構要求每一款新巴士所作的安全測試。傾斜測試對於巴士的安全十分重要,因為如果一部巴士在拐彎時翻倒,可能會造成人命傷亡。傾斜測試的設計在於試出巴士的靜態翻側極限,如果一輛巴士符合傾斜測試的合格標準,即該巴士以正常速度拐彎時應該沒問題。 在香港,新巴士可以接受車輛檢驗之前,必須申請一張車輛類型核准証明書,該証明書的其中一項要求是通過傾斜測試;要注意的是,每一款新型號巴士中只需要其中一部接受車輛類型核准測驗即可。 (zh)
