The VSB14 lane change test is here:

However when you read the actual ISO standard it is based on, the ISO standard only requires speeds of 80km/hr. The intention of the test is to establish a qualitative set of handling behaviours, and so doing it at greater speeds is reasonably pointless; 80km/hr will be suitable for a competent person to establish the overall handling of the vehicle. Additional to this, I will both power on an lift off as I enter each stage of the test if I am satisfied with the stable throttle position. The aim there is to see if the vehicle has more power than traction, how it delivers the power, if it is catchable if it does step out, and importantly, if you have any lift off oversteer. The point of the test is in the title - the emergency lane change manoeuvre. It is a test to establish of you could safely avoid a collision by changing lanes suddenly, or if you will end up in another collision!
This test has been updated with the robotic sine wave test, and I'm pretty sure we have all seen a couple of mass manufactured vehicles fail these. The sine wave test is also used as a test of ESC systems. Currently there are no set limits for how a vehicle must perform in these tests, because each manufacturer is free to use whichever method they choose to improve stability.
