I'm not going to edit my post above again.
However, this bloke has really got my goat. I think my Police Driver Trainer mode has kicked in.
In the article he says quote:
"As you begin to move around the corner, your caravan is still travelling in a straight line behind you. To change that direction, a certain level of force is required and it needs to be applied by your towcar. Otherwise, your leisure vehicle will continue its original trajectory, causing instability, or even an accident.
Pressing the sports mode button will tighten your car’s suspension, meaning less body roll and improved traction. A faster throttle response will allow you to gently accelerate to change the direction of your caravan. Ultimately, this means that your car is driving the caravan, as opposed to your caravan pushing the car".
Dan Cartwright may be an expert but It's a case of a little information taken out of context being dangerous to people with little knowledge or experience.
His explanation of the cornering forces are simple but basically correct.
However, he then talks about how A faster throttle response will allow you to gently accelerate to change the direction of your caravan.
To accelerate means increasing speed.
You do not want to increase speed when cornering especially when towing, you should aim to maintain a constant speed throughout the curve as far as possible. This is achieved by gentle and accurate application of the throttle to overcome the physical forces acting on the vehicle which cause it to slow down.
So, on the approach to a bend you achieve the appropriate speed you wish to negotiate it at. As you enter the bend you apply sufficient throttle, not to increase speed but to maintain it. This ensures maximum stability throughout the curve. Equally, entering a bend too quickly and taking your foot off the accelerator suddenly or braking will cause the car to slow down and if a caravan is attached the caravan will then push the car, again causing instability.
A very simplistic explanation and it takes practice but, entering a bend too quickly and/or accelerating around bends with or without a caravan attached is a recipe for disaster.
I'm off my soapbox now.
