Abstract

A steering control system executes an automatic intervention in the steering of the rear axle when a .mu.-split condition is detected, in order to stabilize the tracking of the vehicle. The steering always takes place in the direction of the vehicle side on which the higher braking torque is generated; this applies also to cornering, irrespective of whether the lower .mu.-value is on the inside of the bend or on the outside of the bend and, furthermore, irrespective of whether the vehicle is being braked or accelerated.
