Evaluation of the impact of runway characteristics on veer-off risk at rapid exit taxiways

•Runway rapid exit taxiways enable aircraft to reduce runway occupancy times.•At high speed turning maneuvers, aircraft veer-off incidents have taken place.•Aircraft nose gear stability causes for the initiation of such veer-off incidents.•The highest impact on the veer-off probability is due to the exit speed.•Rapid exit design factors can minimize aircraft veer-off risk at rapid exits.
