Abstract

The adhesion coefficient of automobile tire and road surface was analyzed and the formula about it was derived. Some suggestions about highway construction, driving safety of the drivers and the judgment of the traffic accidents were presented. The results show that the adhesion coefficient is a function with the extreme value. If there is atmospheric pressure in the tire, the load of the vehicle and the degree of the coarse on the road surface is not selected properly, it will reach the least and affect the safety of the running automobile.
