Zusammenfassung:The invention relates to a device for preventing an articulated vehicle from jackknifing and/or for stabilising driving. The device comprises spring-loaded pulling means (4), which are positioned crosswise and connected between the ends of the load sections (2, 3) of the articulated vehicle. To connect the pulling means (4) to one of the load sections (2), the said one load section (2) is provided with a rotating winding means (7, 8). The pulling means (4) are wound on a rotating winding means (7, 8), which winds the pulling means (4) in or open while rotating in one direction or the other, so that while one of the pulling means lengthens, the other shortens, respectively. The rotation of the winding means (7, 8) can be dampened or braked by braking means (12, 13) in both directions of rotation.
