ABSTRACT:
A braking system for braking a motor vehicle by the front and rear brakes of the vehicle's front and rear wheels, respectively, including a distribution control device for controlling a distribution of front and rear wheel braking force produced by the respective front and rear brakes, according to a selected one of a first and a second distribution pattern, each of which represents the front and rear wheel braking forces in relation to each other wherein the rear wheel braking force defined by the second distribution pattern is larger than that defined by the first distribution pattern at least when the front and rear wheel braking forces are smaller than respective predetermined values. The selection of the two distribution patterns may be dependent on vehicle load.
