It has been evolved in the Dept. of Tank Design and Experiment for the purpose of testing out the possibilities, employing flexible tracks, steerability without braking and skidding land at 20 m.p.h., while small hard obstacles could be negotiated without transmitting any shock to the rider.
As a novelty the motor cycle caterpillar is distinctly interesting, and might offer certain possibilities for miltary purposes, although the machine is built as a preliminary experiment in connection with larger vehicles of the caterpillar type.
