Abstract
A process and an apparatus are provided for controlling the brake system of a vehicle. A desired value representing the vehicle deceleration is formed depending on a depression signal derived from actuation of the brake pedal by the drive, and additionally depending on the rate of change that signal. The actual vehicle deceleration is compared to the desired value and the vehicle is automatically braked when the actual deceleration deviates from the desired value.
