WINTER SERVICE VEHICLE AND METHODS FOR DETERMINING A SPREADING RATE FOR SPREADING DE-ICING MATERIAL ON ROADS
The winter service vehicle generally has a chassis, an engine mounted to the chassis, an engine control unit (ECU), a spreading system mounted to the chassis, and a computer. The winter service vehicle further comprises a controller area network (CAN) bus link connected between the ECU and the computer, allowing the computer to determine a current speed of the winter service vehicle via the CAN bus link, and to determine a spreading rate based on the current speed of the winter service vehicle. The spreading rate is the rate at which de-icing material is spread on roads by the spreading system of the winter service vehicle.
