The traction controller is set to an operation permit mode when the vehicle speed is in the low speed range, and set to an operation prohibited mode when the vehicle speed is in the high speed range. Also, the traction controller is set to an operation permit mode when the pad temperature is below a first predetermined temperature, and to an operation prohibited mode when the pad temperature is above a second predetermined temperature.
