I am looking for information on Commercial Vehicle acceleration factors. Particullarly for an 18-wheeler starting from a stop and making a 90 degree turn.

Also, does someone know where to find commercial vehicle specifications. I was wondering if there was something similar to the Canadian Vehicle Specifications that addresses Commercial Vehicles.
