ABSTRACT:
An emergency braking system for a vehicle driven by an electric motor. The vehicle includes a manually operable accelerator lever, a displacement detector for detecting displacement of the accelerator lever, an emergency detector disposed in a region of the accelerator lever for detecting an operating force applied to the accelerator lever, a braking device, and a control unit for receiving detection signals from the displacement detector and emergency detector, and outputting control signals to the electric motor and braking device. The control unit outputs the control signal to the braking device to brake the vehicle when the operating force detected by the emergency detector exceeds a predetermined value. In addition or as alternative to the emergency detector, the vehicle may include an emergency detector disposed in a driver's foot rest region for detecting a treading force of the driver.
