The control rod of the right-hand wheel is additionally connected to the control rod of the left-hand wheel via a coupling rod. The coupling rod is exclusively supported on the left-hand and right-hand control rod, preferably in the vicinity of the respective control rod bearing on the body of the vehicle that is disposed in an offset fashion in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle relative to the associated wheel bearing. A mechanical deep-pass filter is provided in the coupling rod and/or in the connection between the coupling rod and a control rod stabilized relative thereto.
