Abstract
The invention concerns a steering and braking system for a motor vehicle which has wheels on opposite sides thereof. Each wheel has a brake unit that can be controlled by an operator actuating a brake device, such as a brake pedal. At least one of the brake units is controlled in response to a turning maneuver of the motor vehicle independent of the actuation of the brake pedal, so that a higher braking force is applied to an inside one of the brake units with respect to the curve than is applied to an outside one of the brake units with respect to the curve.
