Abstract
In a vehicle-running control system, an engine combustion control device includes a malfunction detector for detecting a malfunction of the engine combustion control device, and an engine-combustion stopping unit operative in response to a malfunction detecting signal from the malfunction detector to stop combustion in the engine. A clutch control device has an urgent clutch switching unit which responds to the malfunction detecting signal to output a control signal for bringing a clutch to its engaged position, to an actuator of the clutch control device. A transmission control device has an urgent gear-position switching unit which responds to the malfunction detecting signal to output a control signal for bringing the gear position to one different from a neutral, to an actuator of the transmission control device.
