In transport, D-value is a rating in kN that is typically attributed to mechanical couplings, and reflects dynamic loading limits between a towing vehicle and a trailer.The corresponding formula for a truck and trailer combination, used to determine the required D-value of a coupling, is:
Car Talk was presented in the form of a call-in radio show: listeners called in with questions related to motor vehicle maintenance and repair.
