Abstract
A vehicle behavior control device comprises: a steer-by-wire type steering apparatus () having a steering wheel-side mechanism and a road wheel-side mechanism which are mechanically separated from each other; and a controller () performs a driving force reduction control when a steering speed in the steering apparatus () becomes equal to or greater than a given threshold. The steering apparatus () comprises a first steering angle sensor () provided in the steering wheel-side mechanism and a second steering angle sensor () provided in the road wheel-side mechanism. The controller () performs the driving force reduction control using the first steering angle sensor () when a yaw rate or a steering speed is equal to or greater than a given value, and performs the driving force reduction control using the second steering angle sensor () when the yaw rate or the steering speed is less than the given value.
