The article offers an algorithm for the operation of the steering and active drive control system of a saddle-type tractor – trailer combination. The algorithm allows reducing the width of the cornering corridor when maneuvering at low speeds. In the combination vehicle under study, all the wheels of the tractor and semi-trailer are driving and steered. The algorithm of the steering control system takes into account the current values of the folding angle and speed of the combination vehicle. The active drive control is based on the analysis of the forces in the coupling device. The efficiency and effectiveness of the proposed algorithm has been proved using computational experiments.
