ABSTRACT:
The invention concerns an articulated vehicle comprising a rear frame (1) and a front frame (2) linked by an articulation (3) associated with the device (30, 6) for removably locking controlled by a pendular member (4, 62) mounted oscillating on the front frame (2) between a median position for unlocking the articulation and a spaced apart position for locking the articulation, at least when the vehicle is stopped. The vehicle comprises means (5) for controlling the unlocking of the articulation, at least during start-up, including an auxiliary platform (5) integral in rotation with the rear frame (1) and comprising, at least, two footrests (51) arranged at substantially the same level relative to the ground, on either side of the axis (x′x) of the articulation (3) and constituting each, on the side towards which the front frame (2) is inclined, a support for said front frame (2) to be set upright by the vehicle driver, the pendular member (4, 62) returning to its median position for unlocking the articulation.
