ABSTRACT:
Pressure sensors situated on opposite sides of a land motor vehicle relative to the direction of travel enable a signal to be generated which is indicative of the presence and the direction of a gust of cross-wind striking the vehicle. Flaps, which are connected to the sensors and are normally closed flush with the body, are movable to project selectively from the outer surface of the motor vehicle, in the event of a gust, to induce in the vehicle a slewing moment in the direction opposite the direction of the gust.
