Abstract

The present invention is directed to a brake control system for a vehicle, wherein a first valve device for opening or closing a main passage, a hydraulic pressure pump, and a second valve device for opening or closing an auxiliary passage are disposed in each hydraulic pressure circuit of a dual hydraulic pressure circuit system. At least one of the first and second valve devices is controlled to equalize the slip rates of a pair of wheels, with the wheel brake cylinders operatively mounted thereon and disposed in different hydraulic circuits, and placed at the left side and right side of the vehicle, respectively, when a difference between the slip rates of the wheels placed at the left side and right side exceeds a predetermined value.
