According to one embodiment, there is provided a vehicle behavior control system. The vehicle behavior control system includes a steering angle obtaining module, a steering angular velocity obtaining module, a vehicle speed obtaining module, a standard yaw rate calculation module, a limit yaw rate setting module and a behavior stabilization control module. The behavior stabilization control module executes a behavior stabilization control so as to stabilize a behavior of the vehicle by giving a braking force to a turning outer wheel of the vehicle based on a target braking force. The behavior stabilization control module sets a control intervention threshold based on the limit yaw rate and the steering angular velocity, and determines that the behavior stabilization control is to be started in case the standard yaw rate exceeds the control intervention threshold.

Vehicle braking system for stability control

A document conveyance device includes: a reader reading a document-sheet passing on a contact glass; a white plate being placed opposite to the contact glass; a first conveyance roller and a first driven roller placed upstream of the reader in a sheet conveying direction; a second conveyance roller and a second driven roller placed downstream of the reader in the sheet conveying direction; a holding member configured to hold rotatably the first and second driven roller; a spacer configured to support the holding member and include one or more of support planes different in height; wherein a support plane selected from the one or more support planes in accordance with a thickness of the document-sheet is moved manually to support the holding member, and the white plate is configured to lift upward from the contact glass plate by a forehead of the sheet passing through the contact glass plate.
