Abstract
A vehicle turning behavior control system is mounted in an automotive vehicle having an anti-skid braking system. The control system has an electronic control unit to which a signal representative of a vehicle turning condition is input. The control unit is arranged to establish a difference between braking forces applied respectively to inside and outside wheels (with respect to a vehicle turning direction) in accordance with the turning condition representative signal so as to develop a yaw moment between the inside and outside wheels to promote a turning of the vehicle. The control unit also functions to control the braking force applied to the outside wheel in accordance with the braking force applied to the inside wheel by the anti-skid system in a manner such that the former braking force changes in a similar pattern to the latter braking force.
