Abstract
A traction control system is provided for controlling wheel spin of a vehicle. The amount of wheel spin is determined for each driven wheel and compared with a threshold. When the threshold is exceeded, drive to the driven wheel is immediately reduced by a predetermined amount. Drive is restored as soon as the wheel spin is brought under control.
