juddered
Trembled with force
Juddered is the past tense of judder, meaning to shake or vibrate rapidly and intensely.
The word is chiefly British and describes mechanical shuddering—an engine juddering before stalling, a bus juddering over cobblestones: The old truck juddered to a halt.
It conveys rougher, more violent motion than trembled or quivered.
