Truck behaviour on rough roads

This sort of thing:

Previously, the rough roads and speed bumps commonly found in South America and the former Soviet Union would just cause a bit of noise and shaking but a few generations of game updates ago said bumps, and the occasional rail crossing closer to home, have resulted in behaviour like that in the screenshot or the truck being fired off the road altogether. It only happens when you've got the power on, so you can coast quite happily over stuff at 140 km/h but have cruise control on at 30 km/h and you find yourself bouncing into oncoming traffic. I haven't been able to determine whether it's connected with a specific map mod, but it happens in profiles both with and without some, or more, of ProMods/MHA/TSM/EAA/Russian Open Spaces. My uninformed guess is that SCS fiddled with something under the bonnet which affects any sufficiently large bump but this is only a guess.
Has anyone figured out the cause or (better) a fix?
