ABSTRACT:
To decrease the braking distance or braking path of a vehicle equipped with an automatic brake anti-lock or automatic anti-skid system, under unusual operating conditions in which the wheels on one side (right) are on a slippery surface, for example ice, and the wheels on the left side (L) of the vehicle are on a high-friction surface, for example clear roadway, without introducing excessive yaw during braking, pressure drop in the brake line at the low-friction side is sensed and braking pressure increased at the high-friction side after elapse of a predetermined timing interval, regardless of continued decreased braking pressure at the low-friction side; the increase in braking pressure at the high-friction side preferably occurs in pulses (.DELTA.P), the pulse lengths and pulse gaps of which are a function of vehicle speed (v).
