Abstract
An improved traction control system for a vehicle which ensures that when a driver has performed a voluntary operation to reduce the driven wheel speed during carrying-out of a traction control, a deceleration greater than required is avoided, thereby avoiding an uncomfortable feeling provided to the driver. The improvement to the traction control system includes a control unit for stopping the traction control in response to the driver's operation to reduce the driven wheel speed during carrying-out of the traction control.
