ABSTRACT:
In order to improve the steering and handling characteristics of a four wheel drive vehicle wherein at least one of the front and rear sets of wheels are provided with an auxiliary steering device, the steering condition of the vehicle is sensed and in the event that the steering is such that yaw can be easily induced the amount of power which is distributed to the front wheels is decreased relative to the amount prior the instant steering condition being established and vice versa.
