<p>An outrigger (56) to prevent a moving vehicle from overturning includes an arm (68) that normally stays in a retracted, stored position that allows the vehicle freedom to travel, but then automatically extends to brace the vehicle in response to tilting to a predetermined limit. The arm (68) has a pivotal or linear motion driven by virtue of its own weight or by spring force. A releasable latch (58) holding the arm (68) in the stored position automatically releases the arm (68) in response to a mechanical or electrical tilt sensor that detects that the vehicle has tilted to the limit.</p> |
