Abstract
Systems, methods, and other embodiments described herein relate to steering a vehicle based on an intended yaw rate during loss of traction. In one arrangement, a method for steering a vehicle during loss of traction is disclosed. The method includes detecting a slipping tire of a vehicle losing traction with a road. The method also includes decoupling control of a pair of front tires of the vehicle by a steering wheel of the vehicle. The method also includes identifying an intended yaw rate for controlling the vehicle by detecting an angle of the steering wheel while the slipping tire does not have traction. The method further includes steering the vehicle separately from an input of a steering wheel of the vehicle to cause intended yaw rate.
