I once saw an equation that would describe how much a vehicle would offtrack in curves and turns, as a function of curve radius and wheelbase. A former colleague used it, and I can't recall where he found it. Any suggestions?

No, I don't have access to AutoTurn or its competitors.

Found it!

It's in AASHTO, page 203 of the 2004 edition.
