Abstract
A rough terrain vehicle includes: a vehicle body; a state detector mounted on the vehicle body and configured to detect a state of the vehicle; a control target mounted on the vehicle body and operable during driving of the vehicle; an estimator mounted on the vehicle body and configured to estimate a margin for overturning of the vehicle or for load on the vehicle based on a result of detection by the state detector; and a controller mounted on the vehicle body and configured to, when the vehicle is traveling, control the control target to allow the margin estimated by the estimator to exceed a predetermined level.
