  • Publication number: 20210009182
    Abstract: Known vehicles, e.g. used for the sport of golf, which are configured combined for riding along and to be pushed with motorized support, exclusively comprise a steerable, rigid frame, causing the vehicle when positioned on the side of a slope to tilt parallel to the slope plane, consequently resulting in a disadvantageous, safety-relevant tilting moment. For improved driving safety, it should be possible to tilt the vehicle sideways. The vehicle according to the invention can be used in at least two operating modes. In the ride-along mode, at least a second and/or third vehicle component can be moved by the operator or an automatic, thus causing the vehicle to tilt sideways. This enables a carving effect and the tilt compensation as well as a straight-ahead drive at least in side slopes and inclines.
