After applying Python: the vehicle follows the terrain. The ride is a bit bumpy, probably because the terrain mesh is coarse. Though this is a specialized application, the basic mechanism will work for any situation where a moving object needs to sense the presence of a still object, and do something -- stop, squish, bounce -- in response. Also, this makes NO use of the facilities of Poser 5, if there actually is such a program.
