ABSTRACT:
A brake control apparatus which is used in a vehicle having wheels on left and right sides, and controls a braking force provided to each wheel is disclosed. The brake control apparatus is provided with a vehicle body speed calculating section, a steering angle calculating section, and an ECU. A braking force is provided to a wheel on the inner side with respect to the vehicle turning direction in the case where the absolute value of the steering angle is equal to or greater than the preset threshold value of the steering angle. In the case where the vehicle body speed is less than the preset speed threshold value, the braking force becomes smaller than the braking force in the case where the vehicle body speed is equal to or greater than the speed threshold value.
