Abstract
The wind velocity of the overturning of a vehicle due to cross-winds depends on the aerodynamic characteristics of the vehicle on the ground, an embankment or a bridge. The field tests were made on the aerodynamic characteristics of the vehicle at rest on the bridge and the wind tunnel tests corresponding to the field tests were also made. The results of the wind tunnel tests agreed with those of the field tests qualitatively.
