This document considers speed, accelera
9、tion, stability, braking systems, operational controls, lighting, electrical systems, fuel systems, and general configurations. Safety codes and standards are intended to enhance public health and safety. Standards result from consideration of factors such as technological advances, new data, and ch
10、anging environmental needs.One purpose of the document is to serve as a guide to governmental authorities having jurisdiction over subjects within the scope of the document. It is expected, however, that the document will find a major application in industry, serving as a guide to manufacturers of t
11、he vehicles.If adopted for governmental use, references to other national standards may be changed to refer to the corresponding governmental regulations.SAE INTERNATIONAL J2358 NOV2016 Page 2 of 27The use of Low Speed Vehicles is subject to certain hazards that cannot be eliminated or guarded again
12、st by mechanical means. Only the exercise of care and good judgment will minimize these hazards. It is therefore essential to have competent and careful Operators, who are not physically or mentally impaired, thoroughly trained in the safe operation of Low Speed Vehicles. It is recommended that the
13、Operator be capable of obtaining a valid motor vehicle Operators license.TABLE OF CONTENTS1. SCOPE 31.1 Purpose. 32. REFERENCES 32.1 Applicable Documents 32.2 Related Publication . 43.

SCOPEThis SAE Standard defines the safety and performance requirements for Low Speed Vehicles (“LSV”). The safety specifications in this document apply to any powered vehicle with a minim
18、um of 4-wheels, a maximum level ground speed of more than 32 km/h (20 mph) but not more than 40 km/h (25 mph),), and a maximum gross vehicle weight of 1361 kg (3000 pounds), that is intended for operating on designated roadways where permitted by law.1.1 PurposeThe purpose of this document is to pro
19、mote safety in the design, manufacture, maintenance and operation of LSVs. Regulatory Authorities desiring to formulate safety rules and regulations may use this Standard as a guide. This document is also intended for voluntary use by others associated with manufacturing or utilizing LSVs. This SAE
20、document is intended to provide guidance in the manufacture of LSVs meeting the requirements of Part 571.500 of Title 49 of the Code of Federal Regulations as established by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.2.
