DEFINITION

Classification: 280/124.103

Body banking on turning:

(under subclass 124.1) Subject matter wherein the suspension creates or enables sideways or transverse inclination of the vehicle body, chassis, or frame toward a center of curvature about which the vehicle is executing arcuate travel to overcompensate for a resultant centrifugal force experienced by the vehicle.

(1) Note. The mere balancing, cancellation, or compensation of centrifugal force experienced by a vehicle executing arcuate travel is not proper for classification in this subclass.
