Claim 20:
21. A rollover prevention apparatus comprising a steering wheel in mechanically slaved steerable communication with at least one steerable tire of a vehicle and having:
a first mode that for the duration of when said apparatus is in said first mode, always allows a vehicle to be steered within a maximal non-rollover steering range of motion of said vehicle but always prevents said vehicle from being steered beyond a roll threshold of said vehicle at any roll capable speed of said vehicle and without locking said apparatus such that all steerable movement of said apparatus is prevented, and
a second mode that when said apparatus is in said second mode always allows a vehicle to be steered within a maximal non-rollover steering range of motion of said vehicle but does not prevent said vehicle from being steered beyond a roll threshold of said vehicle, and
wherein said apparatus transitions from said first mode to said second mode in response to an application of non-oversteer rotational load to said steering wheel.
