The curve proves sharp. You try to follow its unnatural arc but it breaks to a sudden left - sending your truck dangerously close to the pavement edge. You jerk the steering wheel to compensate and feel your payload shudder in response. For a brief and terrible moment, you fear that your vehicle will topple to its side.

It - thankfully - doesnâ€™t. The worry, though, doesnâ€™t fade away.

Ford understands. This is why itâ€™s pairing its 2018 F-150 with exclusive Curve Control - a system that helps to achieve a balanced ride on every terrain.

As TFL Truck explains, Ford is redefining safety. The 2018 F-150 will boast Curve Control - which utilizes on-board sensors to monitor environmental changes (including inclines, turns, and uneven pavement). Should the conditions prove less than optimal, the system will engage the brakes and reduce the overall speed by 10 MPH. This will provide drivers with greater stability, sparing them the sudden lurch of a steering wheel and allowing them to instead gently correct their positions.

This, TFL Truck notes, will create safer conditions - with the new F-150 automatically responding to dangerous curves. The system requires less than a second to achieve total speed control, and this may prove the difference between success and an accident.
