Mack Makes Stability Protection Standard On Big Trucks

Mack Trucks Inc. has announced that the company is making its Road Stability Advantage by Bendix (Mack RSA) system standard on all of its new highway vehicles.

Mack RSA is a full electronic stability system that uses the existing ABS wheel speed sensors, along with steering, yaw and lateral acceleration inputs, to deactivate the throttle and selectively apply the brakes in sharp curves, sudden lane changes, or obstacle avoidance maneuvers.
Mack began offering the RSA system as an option on its highway tractors late last year.
“The decision to make Mack RSA standard now was not a difficult one,” said Tom Kelly, Mack vice president of marketing. “The system has demonstrated that it can do what it’s intended to do. And it has been very well received by our customers.”
