Zusammenfassung:A control unit arranged to monitor a load distribution of a vehicle when the vehicle is in motion, the control unit comprising an interface arranged to receive a plurality of load values associated with one or more vehicle axles and/or one or more vehicle wheels from a plurality of load sensors arranged on the vehicle, wherein the control unit is arranged to determine a vehicle load distribution based on the plurality of load values, to compare the determined vehicle load distribution to a pre-determined allowable vehicle load distribution, and to trigger an emergency procedure in case the determined vehicle load distribution differs from the pre-determined vehicle load distribution by more than an allowable amount.
