Patent

CA 2426717

The present invention provides a method and apparatus to automatically control the speed of a work machine based on ton-miles-per-hour limit of at least one of a plurality of tires. A vehicle information system having a processor and a database monitors an actual ton-miles-per-hour calculation of the plurality of tires. The vehicle information system functions in combination with an electronic control module of the machine to trigger an automatic speed reduction should the actual ton-miles-per-hour rating exceed a predetermined limit. The speed reduction may be affected by at least one of reducing a throttle setting, changing a transmission gear and automatic application of the machine brakes.
