We consider the equations of motion arising from the classical scattering problem for potentials decreasing sufficiently fast at infinity. It is common to impose some conditions on the potential which guarantee that the paths of particles moving to infinity have straight lines as asymptotes. In this paper a new criterion is given by which one can decide whether or not a given potential has this special property called asymptotic straightness.
