Various methods have been used to improve path-tracking algorithms which increase vehicle performance, including tracking accuracy and stability.

Conventional front wheel steering is unable to satisfy the manoeuvre with a high lateral acceleration since the front steering angle is limited in accurately responding to vehicle dynamics.
