Abstract

A brake control system for a motor vehicle having a plurality of wheels, brakes for applying a braking effort to one or more of the wheels, and a movement sensor for detecting movement of the vehicle. The system comprises a brake actuator for actuating the brakes to supply a braking effort and a brake controller for controlling the brake actuator. The brake controller is configured to determine an acceleration of the vehicle based on movement detected by the movement sensor and to ensure that the brake actuator supplies a braking effort if the determined acceleration exceeds a set acceleration limit.
